President Joe Biden and First Lady Jill Biden visited Eliot-Hine Middle School on the District of Columbia's first day of the 2023-24 school year. They greeted seventh graders and cheered up eighth graders in a math class, discussing their excitement and the hardest subject, which all shouted was "Math!" Mayor Muriel Bowser and the school's chancellor joined them. Jill Biden, a teacher, shared her anticipation for the new school year and the students' enthusiasm. The visit initiated the First Lady's back-to-school initiatives, focusing on teachers' and students' mental health. The school, established in 1931, recently upgraded its facilities and prioritizes academic and socio-emotional education.
