2020 Census Student Activities Mailed to Every School Across the Nation

"The U.S. Census Bureau recently mailed 2020 Census Statistics in Schools (SIS) kits to every school in the nation. Mailed to every public, private, and charter school administrator, the kits include information for teachers to get access to free activities and materials to use in classrooms during the 2020 Census. 
The SIS kits include an administrator booklet which contains a printable flyer for teachers as well as a take-home flyer for students, information on how to access downloadable material on census.gov/schools, and large colorful wall maps for classrooms containing student friendly statistics.

SIS is a nationwide initiative designed to engage educators in helping their communities achieve a complete count in the 2020 Census. Educators across the nation are encouraged to use free census classroom resources and activities to teach students about the importance of the census in determining political representation and how billions of dollars are distributed every year back to local communities based on census counts."
