A little surprise from the President and the Vice President

Hi everyone, To mark the fourth anniversary of the launch of Let's Move!, I asked you to show me how you move. I wanted to see all of the fun, creative things you're doing in your homes, schools, and communities to get kids excited about eating healthy and being active. And I said that if we got enough responses, we'd have a little surprise -- the President, and maybe the Vice President, would show everyone how they move. Well, let's just say you stepped up in a big way -- which means it's time to hold up my end of the bargain. Here it is. Take a look at how the President and the Vice President move: I'm so proud of Barack and Joe. But more importantly, I'm so proud of all of you. Across the country, you've shared videos on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Vine, and other networks with the hashtag #LetsMove. You've shown how you work out, how you're making better food choices, and how you're moving your communities toward a healthier future. It's been really inspiring to see. And if we all keep moving forward like this, then I am confident we can give all our children the bright, healthy futures they so richly deserve. Thanks so much for everything you're doing. First Lady Michelle Obama P.S. -- Yesterday, we announced that for the first time in two decades, we'll be updating the labels on our food so that we can provide families with better information about the products they buy and eat. Check out what this will mean for you. This email was sent to ciii.307@hotmail.com. Unsubscribe | Privacy Policy Please do not reply to this email.

Today: The First-Ever White House Student Film Festival

Hello everyone, The very best person to talk to about how modern technology is changing our classrooms isn't me, or even the President. It's a student who is actually learning from those tools every day -- accessing school assignments online, watching video lessons to learn a new concept, or even talking directly with other students around the world with new technology. That's why, a few months ago, the White House challenged students all across the country to create short films answering a simple question: Why is technology so important in the classroom -- and how will it change the educational experience for kids in the future? The response was overwhelming. And today, the 16 official selections are going to be screened at the first-ever White House Student Film Festival. You're going to want to tune in for this one. Watch the official selections, then tune in today at 2:30 p.m. ET. Today's going to be a fun day, but this event speaks to something much bigger. That's because these students' films all illustrate the critical conversation about education in our country right now: the importance of connecting our classrooms. The fact is that right now, only around 30 percent of our students have the high-speed Internet access they need for digital learning. That means millions of kids across the country aren't currently benefiting from the kinds of technologies that made the student films you'll watch today possible. The President's ConnectED initiative is making sure that changes -- by connecting 99 percent of students to next-generation, high-speed broadband within five years. Want to see exactly why that's so important? Just take a look at some of the incredible things kids can produce when they're connected. See the official film festival selections, then make sure you're watching the event at 2:30 p.m. ET today. Looking forward to continuing the conversation, Secretary Arne Duncan Department of Education This email was sent to ciii.307@hotmail.com.
