“All of us, at sometime or other, need help. Whether we’re giving or receiving help, each of us has something valuable to bring to this world. That’s one of the things that connects us as neighbors—in our own way, each of us is a giver and a receiver.” - Mister Rogers
Be My Neighbor Day was a wonderful reminder of these words, as partners from our learning neighborhood gathered together in support of the families we serve. We need each other; we need kindness; we need neighbors.
Thank you to all who came and made this such a special event! 💜

A huge thank you to everyone who played a part in yesterday’s EdCamp! It was a lively time of sharing ideas, resources, and solutions to better serve children and families. But don’t just take it from us! Here’s what participants had to say:
“I thought I would be bored and fall asleep but the informal format kept me engaged in discussion.”
“When professionals come together, we are going to gain more insight, encouragement and support.”
“ I learned so much about new resources for supporting students with special needs and those navigating grief and trauma.”
“This was the best way I could have spent my time all year!”

Beginning this year, PBS KIDS is rolling out a full slate of civics-themed content. The effort will span across a range of both new and existing series aimed at encouraging viewers to get involved in their communities and learn more about what’s happening around them.
“Kids are so perceptive to everything happening around them, and at PBS KIDS, we believe it’s important that they have a place to go to learn about civics in an age-appropriate way,” said Sara DeWitt, Senior Vice President and General Manager, PBS KIDS.
As always, PBS KIDS is working to help kids understand how they can be good neighbors. 🏡🛕🛖
