Include any other comments or information you want the Commission to consider in evaluating your compliance with the Children's Television Act (or use this space for supplemental explanations). This may include information on any other noncore educational and informational programming that you aired this quarter or plan to air during the next quarter, or any existing or proposed non-broadcast efforts that will enhance the educational and informational value of such programming to children. See 47 C.F.R. Section 73.671, NOTES 2 and 3. One or more episodes of children's programming that was preempted during the quarter was not rescheduled. The Digital Core Programming Summary section of this report would not permit the station to include preemption reports for such unrescheduled preemptions, and FCC Staff has advised that no preemption report for such unrescheduled episodes is necessary. During this quarter, WDSU continued its scheduling of episodes of "Animal Exploration with Jarod Miller" in order to further bolster audience awareness of this program that is relatively new to the Station, and to engage and educate teen viewers. The Station notified listing guides about these episodes, and the Station aired an informational crawl to promote the episodes.
