National Teacher Appreciation Week
Guest Commentator
Teachers play a critical role in educating and shaping our children: the future leaders of our country. They are kind, patient, hard-working, dedicated, and understanding professionals who help mold our children and guide them in positive directions. We entrust our children with the teachers, and they affect their lives daily.

Teachers do all they can for their students, and we’re doing all we can for teachers. We’re transforming our appreciation into action that protects students, strengthens public schools, and ensures educators are treated with the respect and dignity they deserve. From our social media pages to the offices of our Representatives and Senators, this Teacher Appreciation Week – we’re taking action.
For this year’s Teacher Appreciation Week, NEA asked 1,000 teachers what really makes them feel appreciated. Find out what they said and who NEA President Becky Pringle helped honor on National Teacher Appreciation Day.
