America Counts: Stories Behind the Numbers
Connecting With Partners: National Education Association
The 2020 Census is underway and many organizations are partnering with the U.S. Census Bureau’s Statistics in Schools (SIS) program to promote the nationwide population count.
The National Education Association (NEA) has a long history of working with the Census Bureau and embraced the opportunity to partner with SIS for the 2020 Census.
Here’s our Q&A with Mary Kusler, senior director of the NEA Center for Advocacy.
What’s the most rewarding thing about being an SIS partner?
For educators, the most rewarding thing is knowing that they are helping ensure that their students and students’ families count.
By teaching their students using SIS resources, educators are helping them learn civics, math, geography and other subjects. And as our public school educators spark their students’ natural curiosity and imagination, they are helping their communities get the resources they need to serve all students, especially those most in need.
