As we settle into the fall season, I wanted to send a friendly reminder that International Walk to School Day is just around the corner! This annual event is a great opportunity to celebrate walking to school and highlight the importance of safe, active transportation for our students.
Conlee's event will take place on October 2, and we’d love for each school’s Walking School Bus to participate in a big way—just as you’ve done in the past!
On August 26, we recognize the passage of the 19th Amendment, which gave many women in the United States the right to vote. This day reminds us of the importance of fairness, equal opportunities, and the ongoing work to ensure that everyone’s voice is heard.
In schools and beyond, we celebrate the contributions of women in history, education, science, leadership, and every part of life.
Let’s continue to learn, grow, and stand up for equality together.
