Good morning from MJ at Chalkbeat Indiana! Today’s top story comes from one of our sister publications: Healthbeat. Reporter Allison Young explored how school-level data can help address the risks of outbreaks of measles and other vaccine-preventable diseases on the local level.

Plus, I want to invite you to an upcoming event: Join Chalkbeat reporters Lily Altavena and Alex Zimmerman for a virtual conversation next month about two of the biggest technology debates shaping schools this year: the rapid push toward AI and the growing backlash against screen time. 

This event is for Chalkbeat members. Donate any amount to become a member, support Chalkbeat’s independent education journalism, and reserve your spot. We hope to see you there!
