Each year, National Teacher Appreciation Day recognizes the incredible efforts of educators across America. Falling on the Tuesday of Teacher Appreciation Week in May, this special day is marked by a nationwide celebration – an opportunity to acknowledge and thank those who go above-and-beyond for our children's learning experiences. Teachers are integral when it comes to raising responsible members of society: they shape inquisitive minds with kindness and patience; create impactful support systems through understanding; apply their knowledge diligently with hard work; all while making lasting contributions that stretch far beyond any classroom setting.
