Jenna Bush Hager Is Preparing for Daughter Mila's First Day of Middle School — and Giving Back to Teachers (Exclusive)

Jenna Bush Hager is preparing for a special back-to-school season. At home, she's preparing for daughter Mila, 11, to start middle school while she's also partnering with Kleenex to stock classrooms around the country.

The Today co-host, 42, has enjoyed a lot of quality time with family this summer, making memories with husband, Henry Chase Hager and their three kids — Hal, 5, Poppy, 9, and Mila, 11. The family is slowly shifting into back-to-school mode, with Bush Hager partnering with Kleenex to bring awareness to how important it is to show up for students in educational spaces and provide them with the supplies needed to thrive. So my goal is to introduce myself and find out how I can be helpful, and offer support before I have to start asking questions about the homework or emailing about things that got left in the classroom.
