The mission of KLRN is to open a world of lifelong learning through trustworthy and enriching programs on-air, online and in our community.
Dear Educators,
 
May is Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month. We learn more about and celebrate the many beautiful aspects of the heritages of Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders. This month, we give special thanks to those who serve and have served in the military as part of Military Appreciation Month. This month, we also speak to the importance of talking about mental health as part of Mental Health Awareness Month. Lastly, but with great importance, this Mother’s Day, we give thanks to the mothers and to all who have nurtured us and who have helped us grow. We give you our love and our appreciation.
 
We invite you to join us for this month’s virtual Educator Sessions: on Thursday, 05/04: The Healthy Kids Project: Physical and Emotional Well-Being; on Tuesday, 05/09: Teacher Self-Care and Mental Health: Resources from PBS Learning Media; and on Wednesday, 05/16 for the KLRN Educator Session: Asian Americans: Film and Teaching Resources. Thank you to our friends at Firstmark Credit Union and WETA for their generous support of these sessions.

Our friends at Go Public have created a wonderfully user-friendly Education Timeline with tips for Pre-K through 12th grade - it even includes helpful tips for planning for college. Please visit Go Public’s page to learn more.
