On this episode of Kids First Radio on 100.7 The Point, Keven Cohen and Brad Henry sit down with Superintendent Chris Neeley to reflect on the Month of the Military Child and the incredible resilience of families with deployed loved ones.

We discuss how charter schools across the state are stepping up to support these brave families and honor their service.</p><p>How do we ensure every child has the opportunity to build a meaningful life in our rapidly growing state? Chris shares the inspiring success stories of schools like Liberty Steam and Heartwood, proving what happens when local communities are given the freedom to innovate.
