New 2020 Census Activities for Students
 The U.S. Census Bureau’s Statistics in Schools (SIS) program provides free activities and resources for educators that help bring statistics to life and prepare students for a data-driven world. If you're a teacher, a parent, a grandparent, or an organization that works with children, see all that SIS has to offer.
Statistics in Schools is launching a series of new educational materials about the 2020 Census throughout the fall, including:
- 67 classroom activities
- Updated maps with census statistics
- Three videos for students in grades K-12
- A sing-along song
- A new activity book for children ages 2 to 5
Using SIS resources during the 2019-2020 school year will support efforts to make sure every child is counted in the 2020 Census.
The census impacts federal funding that communities receive for special education, classroom technology, teacher training, after-school programs, school lunch assistance, and more.
