Starting the school year without the right gear? That’s a challenge no child should face! That’s why we teamed up with Cradles to Crayons Philadelphia for their annual Backpack-A-Thon to make sure local kids are set up for success. 🎒💪
With 600+ volunteers, we packed 35,000 backpacks full of brand-new school supplies, ensuring that every child walks into class on Day 1 feeling prepared and excited to learn! 📚✏️

Would you believe that some states are blocking access to funds to feed hungry children?
Every week in my clinic I take care of families that are struggling to put enough food on the table. A new federal program is looking to help with that. Check out our newest episode of KIDS TODAY where we talk all about the program, what states are rolling it out, and about how you (or someone you know) can get enrolled!

🌟 Transforming Lives, Shaping the Future: The Impact of Raising Highly Capable Kids 🌟
In an inspiring new video, Community Champions, Facilitators, partners, and parents open their hearts to share the profound effects of the Raising Highly Capable Kids program on their lives and communities. This powerful initiative is not just about nurturing the potential of our children; it's about crafting the foundation of our future societies.

The Raising Highly Capable Kids program is a testament to the belief that every child possesses untapped potential that, when nurtured, can lead to astonishing outcomes not just for the individual, but for society at large.

This is an interesting dilemma. Pull resources from public schools to fund microschools that help students who fall behind, have learning disabilities or their parents want to have more control over what they learn OR increase funding to public schools to reduce class size and boost support for students with special needs. Tough call.
We've contemplated homeschooling our 5 year old daughter b/c she's an advanced reader and its gives us more freedom to teach her while traveling the world. This article gives me credence to do so. Having a micro school is also an option and it allows a teacher to give more focused attention and tutoring.
What are your thoughts about these #microschools ? Like them, don't like them?
Lessons we can all apply to our lives. Whether it’s business, athletics, raising children, education, continuing to develop our relationship with our significant others I think we can all learn a thing or two about paying attention to the basics.
