1. Get educated on your state/district reentry plans - Check out SHAPE America's School Reentry Considerations along with other resources to help you plan for back to school.
2. Share this one-page primer with your school board and superintendent.
3. Advocate on social media — Tag school leaders, community partners, and state leaders to share your #SHAPEAdvocacy message.
