Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

Constitution Day and Citizenship Day
September 17 is Constitution Day and Citizenship Day (Constitution
Day). This day commemorates the September 17\, 1787 signing of the United
States Constitution.
Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s
ites that contain materials that can be publicly accessed for general use
or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.
The U.S. Departme
nt of Education does not direct or control particular curricula or lesson
plans. The lists of resources below contain links to learning resources cr
eated and maintained by other public and private organizations\, and the g
rade levels and target audiences cited are merely examples. This informati
on is provided for your convenience and as examples of resources for Const
itution Day that you might find helpful.

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

Constitution Day and Citizenship Day
September 17 is Constitution Day and Citizenship Day (Constitution
Day). This day commemorates the September 17\, 1787 signing of the United
States Constitution.
Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s
ites that contain materials that can be publicly accessed for general use
or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.
The U.S. Departme
nt of Education does not direct or control particular curricula or lesson
plans. The lists of resources below contain links to learning resources cr
eated and maintained by other public and private organizations\, and the g
rade levels and target audiences cited are merely examples. This informati
on is provided for your convenience and as examples of resources for Const
itution Day that you might find helpful.

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-

Constitution Day and Citizenship Day
September 17 is Constitution Day and Citizenship Day (Constitution
Day). This day commemorates the September 17\, 1787 signing of the United
States Constitution.
Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s
ites that contain materials that can be publicly accessed for general use
or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.
The U.S. Departme
nt of Education does not direct or control particular curricula or lesson
plans. The lists of resources below contain links to learning resources cr
eated and maintained by other public and private organizations\, and the g
rade levels and target audiences cited are merely examples. This informati

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

DESCRIPTION:
Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s
ites that contain materials that can be publicly accessed for general use
or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.
The U.S. Departme
nt of Education does not direct or control particular curricula or lesson
plans. The lists of resources below contain links to learning resources cr
eated and maintained by other public and private organizations\, and the g

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

Constitution Day and Citizenship Day
September 17 is Constitution Day and Citizenship Day (Constitution
Day). This day commemorates the September 17\, 1787 signing of the United

Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s
ites that contain materials that can be publicly accessed for general use
or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.
The U.S. Departme
nt of Education does not direct or control particular curricula or lesson
plans. The lists of resources below contain links to learning resources cr
eated and maintained by other public and private organizations\, and the g
rade levels and target audiences cited are merely examples. This informati

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

Constitution Day and Citizenship Day
September 17 is Constitution Day and Citizenship Day (Constitution
Day). This day commemorates the September 17\, 1787 signing of the United
States Constitution.
Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s
ites that contain materials that can be publicly accessed for general use
or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.
The U.S. Departme
nt of Education does not direct or control particular curricula or lesson
plans. The lists of resources below contain links to learning resources cr
eated and maintained by other public and private organizations\, and the g
rade levels and target audiences cited are merely examples. This informati
on is provided for your convenience and as examples of resources for Const
itution Day that you might find helpful.

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution

consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s

or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

September 17 is Constitution Day and Citizenship Day (Constitution
Day). This day commemorates the September 17\, 1787 signing of the United

Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s
ites that contain materials that can be publicly accessed for general use
or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.

nt of Education does not direct or control particular curricula or lesson
plans. The lists of resources below contain links to learning resources cr

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s

Constitution Day and Citizenship Day
September 17 is Constitution Day and Citizenship Day (Constitution
Day). This day commemorates the September 17\, 1787 signing of the United
States Constitution.
Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s
ites that contain materials that can be publicly accessed for general use
or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.
The U.S. Departme
nt of Education does not direct or control particular curricula or lesson
plans. The lists of resources below contain links to learning resources cr
eated and maintained by other public and private organizations\, and the g
rade levels and target audiences cited are merely examples. This informati

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

Constitution Day and Citizenship Day
September 17 is Constitution Day and Citizenship Day (Constitution
Day). This day commemorates the September 17\, 1787 signing of the United
States Constitution.
Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s
ites that contain materials that can be publicly accessed for general use
or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.
The U.S. Departme
nt of Education does not direct or control particular curricula or lesson
plans. The lists of resources below contain links to learning resources cr
eated and maintained by other public and private organizations\, and the g
rade levels and target audiences cited are merely examples. This informati

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

Constitution Day and Citizenship Day
September 17 is Constitution Day and Citizenship Day (Constitution
Day). This day commemorates the September 17\, 1787 signing of the United
States Constitution.
Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s
ites that contain materials that can be publicly accessed for general use
or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.
The U.S. Departme
nt of Education does not direct or control particular curricula or lesson
plans. The lists of resources below contain links to learning resources cr
eated and maintained by other public and private organizations\, and the g
rade levels and target audiences cited are merely examples. This informati
on is provided for your convenience and as examples of resources for Const
itution Day that you might find helpful.

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

Constitution Day and Citizenship Day
September 17 is Constitution Day and Citizenship Day (Constitution
Day). This day commemorates the September 17\, 1787 signing of the United
States Constitution.
Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s
ites that contain materials that can be publicly accessed for general use
or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.
The U.S. Departme
nt of Education does not direct or control particular curricula or lesson
plans. The lists of resources below contain links to learning resources cr
eated and maintained by other public and private organizations\, and the g
rade levels and target audiences cited are merely examples. This informati

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

September 17 is Constitution Day and Citizenship Day (Constitution
Day). This day commemorates the September 17\, 1787 signing of the United
States Constitution.
Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s
ites that contain materials that can be publicly accessed for general use
or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.
The U.S. Departme
nt of Education does not direct or control particular curricula or lesson
plans. The lists of resources below contain links to learning resources cr
eated and maintained by other public and private organizations\, and the g
rade levels and target audiences cited are merely examples. This informati

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s
ites that contain materials that can be publicly accessed for general use
or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s
ites that contain materials that can be publicly accessed for general use
or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

American Educ

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

Constitution Day and Citizenship Day
September 17 is Constitution Day and Citizenship Day (Constitution
Day). This day commemorates the September 17\, 1787 signing of the United
States Constitution.
Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s
ites that contain materials that can be publicly accessed for general use
or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.
The U.S. Departme
nt of Education does not direct or control particular curricula or lesson
plans. The lists of resources below contain links to learning resources cr
eated and maintained by other public and private organizations\, and the g
rade levels and target audiences cited are merely examples. This informati
on is provided for your convenience and as examples of resources for Const
itution Day that you might find helpful.

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

American Educ
ation Week celebrates the wide range and incredible team of support profes

f to bus drivers\, technical specialists and students service workers. Eve
ry one of them plays a vital role supporting students and families while k

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

Constitution Day and Citizenship Day
September 17 is Constitution Day and Citizenship Day (Constitution
Day). This day commemorates the September 17\, 1787 signing of the United
States Constitution.
Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s
ites that contain materials that can be publicly accessed for general use
or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.
The U.S. Departme
nt of Education does not direct or control particular curricula or lesson
plans. The lists of resources below contain links to learning resources cr
eated and maintained by other public and private organizations\, and the g
rade levels and target audiences cited are merely examples. This informati

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

American Educ
ation Week celebrates the wide range and incredible team of support profes

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s

or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.

nt of Education does not direct or control particular curricula or lesson
plans. The lists of resources below contain links to learning resources cr

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

American Educ

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s
ites that contain materials that can be publicly accessed for general use
or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.
The U.S. Departme
nt of Education does not direct or control particular curricula or lesson
plans. The lists of resources below contain links to learning resources cr
eated and maintained by other public and private organizations\, and the g

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"

Constitution Day and Citizenship Day
September 17 is Constitution Day and Citizenship Day (Constitution
Day). This day commemorates the September 17\, 1787 signing of the United
States Constitution.
Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s
ites that contain materials that can be publicly accessed for general use
or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.
The U.S. Departme
nt of Education does not direct or control particular curricula or lesson
plans. The lists of resources below contain links to learning resources cr
eated and maintained by other public and private organizations\, and the g
rade levels and target audiences cited are merely examples. This informati

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

American Educ

ry one of them plays a vital role supporting students and families while k

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

Constitution Day and Citizenship Day
September 17 is Constitution Day and Citizenship Day (Constitution
Day). This day commemorates the September 17\, 1787 signing of the United
States Constitution.
Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s
ites that contain materials that can be publicly accessed for general use
or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.
The U.S. Departme
nt of Education does not direct or control particular curricula or lesson
plans. The lists of resources below contain links to learning resources cr
eated and maintained by other public and private organizations\, and the g
rade levels and target audiences cited are merely examples. This informati

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

American Educ
ation Week celebrates the wide range and incredible team of support profes

ry one of them plays a vital role supporting students and families while k

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

American Educ

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

September 17 is Constitution Day and Citizenship Day (Constitution
Day). This day commemorates the September 17\, 1787 signing of the United

Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s
ites that contain materials that can be publicly accessed for general use
or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.
The U.S. Departme
nt of Education does not direct or control particular curricula or lesson
plans. The lists of resources below contain links to learning resources cr
eated and maintained by other public and private organizations\, and the g
rade levels and target audiences cited are merely examples. This informati

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

American Educ

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

September 17 is Constitution Day and Citizenship Day (Constitution
Day). This day commemorates the September 17\, 1787 signing of the United

Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s

or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.

nt of Education does not direct or control particular curricula or lesson
plans. The lists of resources below contain links to learning resources cr

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

September 17 is Constitution Day and Citizenship Day (Constitution
Day). This day commemorates the September 17\, 1787 signing of the United
States Constitution.
Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s
ites that contain materials that can be publicly accessed for general use
or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.
The U.S. Departme
nt of Education does not direct or control particular curricula or lesson
plans. The lists of resources below contain links to learning resources cr
eated and maintained by other public and private organizations\, and the g
rade levels and target audiences cited are merely examples. This informati

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

American Educ

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

Constitution Day and Citizenship Day
September 17 is Constitution Day and Citizenship Day (Constitution
Day). This day commemorates the September 17\, 1787 signing of the United

Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s
ites that contain materials that can be publicly accessed for general use
or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.
The U.S. Departme
nt of Education does not direct or control particular curricula or lesson
plans. The lists of resources below contain links to learning resources cr
eated and maintained by other public and private organizations\, and the g
rade levels and target audiences cited are merely examples. This informati

American Educ
ation Week celebrates the wide range and incredible team of support profes

ry one of them plays a vital role supporting students and families while k

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text

September 17 is Constitution Day and Citizenship Day (Constitution
Day). This day commemorates the September 17\, 1787 signing of the United
States Constitution.
Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s
ites that contain materials that can be publicly accessed for general use
or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.
The U.S. Departme
nt of Education does not direct or control particular curricula or lesson
plans. The lists of resources below contain links to learning resources cr
eated and maintained by other public and private organizations\, and the g

American Educ
ation Week celebrates the wide range and incredible team of support profes

f to bus drivers\, technical specialists and students service workers. Eve
ry one of them plays a vital role supporting students and families while k
eeping our schools running and thriving.
American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

September 17 is Constitution Day and Citizenship Day (Constitution
Day). This day commemorates the September 17\, 1787 signing of the United
States Constitution.
Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s
ites that contain materials that can be publicly accessed for general use
or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.
The U.S. Departme
nt of Education does not direct or control particular curricula or lesson
plans. The lists of resources below contain links to learning resources cr
eated and maintained by other public and private organizations\, and the g

American Educ
ation Week celebrates the wide range and incredible team of support profes

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

American Educ
ation Week celebrates the wide range and incredible team of support profes

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

Constitution Day and Citizenship Day
September 17 is Constitution Day and Citizenship Day (Constitution
Day). This day commemorates the September 17\, 1787 signing of the United

Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s
ites that contain materials that can be publicly accessed for general use
or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.
The U.S. Departme
nt of Education does not direct or control particular curricula or lesson
plans. The lists of resources below contain links to learning resources cr
eated and maintained by other public and private organizations\, and the g
rade levels and target audiences cited are merely examples. This informati

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

Constitution Day and Citizenship Day
September 17 is Constitution Day and Citizenship Day (Constitution
Day). This day commemorates the September 17\, 1787 signing of the United
States Constitution.
Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s
ites that contain materials that can be publicly accessed for general use
or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.
The U.S. Departme
nt of Education does not direct or control particular curricula or lesson
plans. The lists of resources below contain links to learning resources cr
eated and maintained by other public and private organizations\, and the g
rade levels and target audiences cited are merely examples. This informati
on is provided for your convenience and as examples of resources for Const
itution Day that you might find helpful.

American Educ

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

Constitution Day and Citizenship Day
September 17 is Constitution Day and Citizenship Day (Constitution
Day). This day commemorates the September 17\, 1787 signing of the United
States Constitution.
Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s
ites that contain materials that can be publicly accessed for general use
or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.
The U.S. Departme
nt of Education does not direct or control particular curricula or lesson
plans. The lists of resources below contain links to learning resources cr
eated and maintained by other public and private organizations\, and the g
rade levels and target audiences cited are merely examples. This informati

American Educ

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

Constitution Day and Citizenship Day
September 17 is Constitution Day and Citizenship Day (Constitution
Day). This day commemorates the September 17\, 1787 signing of the United

Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s
ites that contain materials that can be publicly accessed for general use
or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.
The U.S. Departme
nt of Education does not direct or control particular curricula or lesson
plans. The lists of resources below contain links to learning resources cr
eated and maintained by other public and private organizations\, and the g
rade levels and target audiences cited are merely examples. This informati

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

Constitution Day and Citizenship Day
September 17 is Constitution Day and Citizenship Day (Constitution
Day). This day commemorates the September 17\, 1787 signing of the United
States Constitution.
Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s
ites that contain materials that can be publicly accessed for general use
or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.
The U.S. Departme
nt of Education does not direct or control particular curricula or lesson
plans. The lists of resources below contain links to learning resources cr
eated and maintained by other public and private organizations\, and the g
rade levels and target audiences cited are merely examples. This informati
on is provided for your convenience and as examples of resources for Const
itution Day that you might find helpful.

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

Constitution Day and Citizenship Day
September 17 is Constitution Day and Citizenship Day (Constitution
Day). This day commemorates the September 17\, 1787 signing of the United
States Constitution.
Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s
ites that contain materials that can be publicly accessed for general use
or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.
The U.S. Departme
nt of Education does not direct or control particular curricula or lesson
plans. The lists of resources below contain links to learning resources cr
eated and maintained by other public and private organizations\, and the g
rade levels and target audiences cited are merely examples. This informati

American Educ

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

September 17 is Constitution Day and Citizenship Day (Constitution
Day). This day commemorates the September 17\, 1787 signing of the United
States Constitution.
Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s
ites that contain materials that can be publicly accessed for general use
or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.
The U.S. Departme
nt of Education does not direct or control particular curricula or lesson
plans. The lists of resources below contain links to learning resources cr
eated and maintained by other public and private organizations\, and the g
rade levels and target audiences cited are merely examples. This informati
on is provided for your convenience and as examples of resources for Const
itution Day that you might find helpful.

American Educ

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

Constitution Day and Citizenship Day
September 17 is Constitution Day and Citizenship Day (Constitution
Day). This day commemorates the September 17\, 1787 signing of the United
States Constitution.
Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s
ites that contain materials that can be publicly accessed for general use
or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.
The U.S. Departme
nt of Education does not direct or control particular curricula or lesson
plans. The lists of resources below contain links to learning resources cr
eated and maintained by other public and private organizations\, and the g
rade levels and target audiences cited are merely examples. This informati

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

Constitution Day and Citizenship Day
September 17 is Constitution Day and Citizenship Day (Constitution
Day). This day commemorates the September 17\, 1787 signing of the United
States Constitution.
Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s
ites that contain materials that can be publicly accessed for general use
or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.
The U.S. Departme
nt of Education does not direct or control particular curricula or lesson
plans. The lists of resources below contain links to learning resources cr
eated and maintained by other public and private organizations\, and the g
rade levels and target audiences cited are merely examples. This informati
on is provided for your convenience and as examples of resources for Const
itution Day that you might find helpful.

American Educ

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

Constitution Day and Citizenship Day
September 17 is Constitution Day and Citizenship Day (Constitution
Day). This day commemorates the September 17\, 1787 signing of the United
States Constitution.
Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s
ites that contain materials that can be publicly accessed for general use
or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.
The U.S. Departme
nt of Education does not direct or control particular curricula or lesson
plans. The lists of resources below contain links to learning resources cr
eated and maintained by other public and private organizations\, and the g
rade levels and target audiences cited are merely examples. This informati
on is provided for your convenience and as examples of resources for Const
itution Day that you might find helpful.

American Educ

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

Constitution Day and Citizenship Day
September 17 is Constitution Day and Citizenship Day (Constitution
Day). This day commemorates the September 17\, 1787 signing of the United
States Constitution.
Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s
ites that contain materials that can be publicly accessed for general use
or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.
The U.S. Departme
nt of Education does not direct or control particular curricula or lesson
plans. The lists of resources below contain links to learning resources cr
eated and maintained by other public and private organizations\, and the g
rade levels and target audiences cited are merely examples. This informati

American Educ

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

Constitution Day and Citizenship Day
September 17 is Constitution Day and Citizenship Day (Constitution
Day). This day commemorates the September 17\, 1787 signing of the United
States Constitution.
Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s
ites that contain materials that can be publicly accessed for general use
or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.
The U.S. Departme
nt of Education does not direct or control particular curricula or lesson
plans. The lists of resources below contain links to learning resources cr
eated and maintained by other public and private organizations\, and the g
rade levels and target audiences cited are merely examples. This informati

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

Constitution Day and Citizenship Day
September 17 is Constitution Day and Citizenship Day (Constitution
Day). This day commemorates the September 17\, 1787 signing of the United

Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s
ites that contain materials that can be publicly accessed for general use
or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.
The U.S. Departme
nt of Education does not direct or control particular curricula or lesson
plans. The lists of resources below contain links to learning resources cr
eated and maintained by other public and private organizations\, and the g
rade levels and target audiences cited are merely examples. This informati

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

Constitution Day and Citizenship Day
September 17 is Constitution Day and Citizenship Day (Constitution
Day). This day commemorates the September 17\, 1787 signing of the United
States Constitution.
Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s
ites that contain materials that can be publicly accessed for general use
or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.
The U.S. Departme
nt of Education does not direct or control particular curricula or lesson
plans. The lists of resources below contain links to learning resources cr
eated and maintained by other public and private organizations\, and the g
rade levels and target audiences cited are merely examples. This informati
on is provided for your convenience and as examples of resources for Const
itution Day that you might find helpful.

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

American Educ

ry one of them plays a vital role supporting students and families while k

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

Constitution Day and Citizenship Day
September 17 is Constitution Day and Citizenship Day (Constitution
Day). This day commemorates the September 17\, 1787 signing of the United
States Constitution.
Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s
ites that contain materials that can be publicly accessed for general use
or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.
The U.S. Departme
nt of Education does not direct or control particular curricula or lesson
plans. The lists of resources below contain links to learning resources cr
eated and maintained by other public and private organizations\, and the g
rade levels and target audiences cited are merely examples. This informati

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

American Educ
ation Week celebrates the wide range and incredible team of support profes

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

Constitution Day and Citizenship Day
September 17 is Constitution Day and Citizenship Day (Constitution
Day). This day commemorates the September 17\, 1787 signing of the United
States Constitution.
Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s
ites that contain materials that can be publicly accessed for general use
or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.
The U.S. Departme
nt of Education does not direct or control particular curricula or lesson
plans. The lists of resources below contain links to learning resources cr
eated and maintained by other public and private organizations\, and the g
rade levels and target audiences cited are merely examples. This informati
on is provided for your convenience and as examples of resources for Const
itution Day that you might find helpful.

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

American Educ
ation Week celebrates the wide range and incredible team of support profes

f to bus drivers\, technical specialists and students service workers. Eve
ry one of them plays a vital role supporting students and families while k

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

September 17 is Constitution Day and Citizenship Day (Constitution
Day). This day commemorates the September 17\, 1787 signing of the United

Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s
ites that contain materials that can be publicly accessed for general use
or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.
The U.S. Departme
nt of Education does not direct or control particular curricula or lesson
plans. The lists of resources below contain links to learning resources cr
eated and maintained by other public and private organizations\, and the g
rade levels and target audiences cited are merely examples. This informati

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

American Educ
ation Week celebrates the wide range and incredible team of support profes

f to bus drivers\, technical specialists and students service workers. Eve
ry one of them plays a vital role supporting students and families while k

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

American Educ
ation Week celebrates the wide range and incredible team of support profes

f to bus drivers\, technical specialists and students service workers. Eve
ry one of them plays a vital role supporting students and families while k

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

Constitution Day and Citizenship Day
September 17 is Constitution Day and Citizenship Day (Constitution
Day). This day commemorates the September 17\, 1787 signing of the United
States Constitution.
Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s
ites that contain materials that can be publicly accessed for general use
or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.
The U.S. Departme
nt of Education does not direct or control particular curricula or lesson
plans. The lists of resources below contain links to learning resources cr
eated and maintained by other public and private organizations\, and the g
rade levels and target audiences cited are merely examples. This informati

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

Constitution Day and Citizenship Day
September 17 is Constitution Day and Citizenship Day (Constitution
Day). This day commemorates the September 17\, 1787 signing of the United
States Constitution.
Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s
ites that contain materials that can be publicly accessed for general use
or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.
The U.S. Departme
nt of Education does not direct or control particular curricula or lesson
plans. The lists of resources below contain links to learning resources cr
eated and maintained by other public and private organizations\, and the g
rade levels and target audiences cited are merely examples. This informati

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

American Educ

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s

or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

American Educ

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

Constitution Day and Citizenship Day
September 17 is Constitution Day and Citizenship Day (Constitution
Day). This day commemorates the September 17\, 1787 signing of the United
States Constitution.
Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s
ites that contain materials that can be publicly accessed for general use
or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.
The U.S. Departme
nt of Education does not direct or control particular curricula or lesson
plans. The lists of resources below contain links to learning resources cr

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

American Educ

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

Constitution Day and Citizenship Day
September 17 is Constitution Day and Citizenship Day (Constitution
Day). This day commemorates the September 17\, 1787 signing of the United
States Constitution.
Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s
ites that contain materials that can be publicly accessed for general use
or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.
The U.S. Departme
nt of Education does not direct or control particular curricula or lesson
plans. The lists of resources below contain links to learning resources cr
eated and maintained by other public and private organizations\, and the g
rade levels and target audiences cited are merely examples. This informati

in 1997 as a one-day event. Today\, thousands of schools across America
—from all 50 states\, the District of Columbia\, and Puerto Rico—parti
cipate every October. Over time\, this celebration has become part of a mo
vement for year-round safe routes to school. Join the movement!

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

American Educ
ation Week celebrates the wide range and incredible team of support profes

ry one of them plays a vital role supporting students and families while k

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s

or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 21\, is Global Accessibility Awareness Day
\, also known as GAAD. The purpose of GAAD is to get people tal
king\, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion for people
with disabilities.
For school-based teams\, accessibility connects
directly to the work you do every day. It shows up in the materials we pro
vide to students\, the documents we send to families\, the learning platfo
rms we use\, the videos we share\, the forms we ask people to complete and
the ways students access instruction and participate in school.
GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

American Educ

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

Constitution Day and Citizenship Day
September 17 is Constitution Day and Citizenship Day (Constitution
Day). This day commemorates the September 17\, 1787 signing of the United
States Constitution.
Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s
ites that contain materials that can be publicly accessed for general use
or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.
The U.S. Departme
nt of Education does not direct or control particular curricula or lesson
plans. The lists of resources below contain links to learning resources cr
eated and maintained by other public and private organizations\, and the g
rade levels and target audiences cited are merely examples. This informati

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.

Annual Nati
onal School Resource Officer Appreciation Day
The Natio
nal Association of School Resource Officers encourages schools and communi
ties to recognize the valuable work of their school resource officers (SRO
s) during National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day on February 15 of every year.
W
e established National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day in 2022\,
after receiving frequent inquiries from schools around the country regardi
ng the most appropriate day to recognize their SROs. NASRO encourages scho
ols and communities to take time on Feb. 15 of every year to let their SRO
s know how much they appreciate the work these officers do to bridge gaps
between law enforcement and youth and to keep schools safe.
An offic
ial proclamation appears below.
The SRO assignment is unique within
the law enforcement profession. These sworn law enforcement officers fill
a three-part role\, serving as informal mentors or counselors\, law educat
ors\, and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities
they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education comm
unity who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pu
rsuit of keeping schools and students safe.
We chose Feb. 15 for Nat
ional School Resource Officer Appreciation Day because it falls during the
traditional academic year and is the birthdate of Archie Hodge\, the only
NASRO founding member who remains active on the organization’s board of
directors. Hodge\, of Jackson\, Mississippi\, retired from law enforcemen
t in 2006 after serving as an SRO for 22 years.

GAA
D is a great opportunity to learn more about how small design choices can
make a big difference. Examples include:
- using headings in docu
ments instead of just bold or larger text
- adding alt text to image
s
- using clear\, descriptive links instead of "click here"
-
making sure videos have captions
- checking that color is not the on
ly way information is communicated
- choosing accessible formats whe
n sharing PDFs\, slides\, handouts and online resources

American Educ
ation Week celebrates the wide range and incredible team of support profes

American Educat
ion Week History
The National Education Association was one of the
creators and original sponsors of American Education Week.
Distresse
d that 25 percent of the country's World War I draftees were illiterate an
d 9 percent were physically unfit\, representatives of the NEA and the Ame
rican Legion met in 1919 to seek ways to generate public support for educa
tion.
The conventions of both organizations subsequently adopted res
olutions of support for a national effort to raise public awareness of the
importance of education. In 1921\, the NEA Representative Assembly in Des
Moines\, Iowa\, called for designation of one week each year to spotlig
ht education. In its resolution\, the NEA called for: “An educational we
ek ... observed in all communities annually for the purpose of informing t
he public of the accomplishments and needs of the public schools and to se
cure the cooperation and support of the public in meeting those needs.”<
/p>
The first observance of American Education Week occurred December 4-
10\, 1921\, with the NEA and American Legion as the cosponsors. A year lat
er\, the then U.S. Office of Education joined the effort as a cosponsor\,
and the PTA followed in 1938.
Other co-sponsors are the U.S. Departm
ent of Education and national organizations including the National PTA\, the American Legion\, the
American Legi
on Auxiliary\, the American Association of School Administrators\, the National School Boards Associ
ation\, the Am
erican Federation of Teachers\, the American School Counselor Association\,<
/u> the Council of C
hief State School Officers\, the National School Public Relations Association\, the National Assoc
iation of State Boards of Education\, the National Association of Elementary School Pr
incipals\, and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
American Education Week is always celebrated the week prior to the week of
Thanksgiving.

Constitution Day and Citizenship Day
September 17 is Constitution Day and Citizenship Day (Constitution
Day). This day commemorates the September 17\, 1787 signing of the United
States Constitution.
Each educational institution that
receives Federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an education
al program about the U.S. Constitution for its students on September 17 (i
f it falls on a weekend\; it should be held in the previous or next week).
This posting is intended to remind affected educational institution
s of this responsibility and to provide examples of resources for them to
consider using in developing their program. We are also offering examples
of resources for students and learners of all ages.
To assist in pla
nning Constitution Day programs\, we are pleased to provide links to Web s
ites that contain materials that can be publicly accessed for general use
or for use as teaching materials in the classroom. These links and materia
ls are provided by the three branches of government in an exciting step fo
rward of collaboration in sharing these resources.
The U.S. Departme
nt of Education does not direct or control particular curricula or lesson
plans. The lists of resources below contain links to learning resources cr
eated and maintained by other public and private organizations\, and the g
rade levels and target audiences cited are merely examples. This informati

DESCRIPTION:
October 6th was chosen for National Instructional Coaches A
ppreciation Day because it is the date that President R
ichard Nixon signed a proclamation in 1972 declaring it National Coaches Day.
While initially focused on athletic coaches\,
the date has since been broadly adopted by schools and educational organi
zations to recognize the vital role of all types of coaches\, including in
structional coaches\, who serve as mentors and guides in various fields.
Key aspects of this date's significance include:- Presidential Proclamation: On October 6\, 1972\, President N
ixon officially established the day to honor coaches for their significant
contributions to youth development\, character building\, and leadership
skills.
- Recognition of Mentorship: The pro
clamation specifically highlighted coaches as "highly qualified teachers..
. friends and counselors who help instill in their players important attit
udes that will serve them all their lives".
- Expansion o
f Scope: Over the years\, the observance has evolved beyond a
thletics to include those in educational settings who support teachers\, e
nhance instructional strategies\, and ultimately improve student learning
outcomes.
Therefore\, October 6th is used to acknowledge th
e dedication and impact of all coaches\, leveraging the historical recogni
tion set by the original proclamation.
