I’m so inspired by the girls from @AGEAfrica who I met last fall in Malawi with the @GirlsAlliance. I had a chance to catch up with them ahead of their graduation from secondary school — take a look! I’m so proud of all of them. ❤️ pic.twitter.com/aYt4dWp4Xm

As a new school year begins, I wanted to share some advice for students heading back to school. Remember to always be yourself, try your best, and never be afraid to make mistakes. I believe in you and can’t wait to see all that you do this school year! pic.twitter.com/QoqMzhH34c

Across the country, parents are putting their children to bed, reading stories, singing lullabies—and in the back of their minds, they’re worried about what might happen tomorrow after they drop their kids off at school, or take them to a grocery store or any other public space.

These are 17 of the 19 children identified by loved ones from Tuesday's tragic school shooting in Uvalde, Texas. Officials now say all of the victims were in the same fourth-grade classroom at Robb Elementary School.

Michelle and I grieve with the families in Uvalde, who are experiencing pain no one should have to bear.
— Barack Obama (@BarackObama) May 25, 2022
We’re also angry for them. Nearly ten years after Sandy Hook—and ten days after Buffalo—our country is paralyzed, not by fear, but by a gun lobby and a political party that have shown no willingness to act in any way that might help prevent these tragedies.
— Barack Obama (@BarackObama) May 25, 2022
It’s long past time for action, any kind of action. And it’s another tragedy—a quieter but no less tragic one—for families to wait another day.
— Barack Obama (@BarackObama) May 25, 2022
May God bless the memory of the victims, and in the words of Scripture, heal the brokenhearted and bind up their wounds.

A huge congrats to Sydney Barber, who will be the first Black woman to lead Midshipmen at the U.S. Naval Academy. Your hard work—and the powerful example you set—are such an inspiration. I’m so proud of you! https://t.co/Y9PAZasj7R

You are the inspiration. Your words were with me every late night and moment of doubt on this journey. Your strength, drive, brilliance and grace is what carried me through. Thank you @MichelleObama for leaving the ladder down. I look forward to meeting you at the top.

Michelle and I want every kid in Chicago to grow up knowing even better opportunities than we had. We’re happy to help Chicago Connected reach every kid in the city.

Another good story worth sharing: From one "kid from Akron" to a new generation of Akron kids, some remarkable early achievements at @IPROMISESchool. Great work, @KingJames—and even better work by those students. Proud to be a witness to their success: https://t.co/ctWfKnA5GL
