Education Week is a celebration of community. The school is not just a building in the neighbourhood, it is the foundation of the community. The first À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ School Week (Education Week) was held December 2–8, 1928. Now, Education Week is from April 7-11, but the purpose remains the same. Education Week celebrates the importance of education and the remarkable things happening in À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ schools.
Education Week is an excellent opportunity to advocate for public education and to:
- Illustrate the important role that schools play in communities
- Assure taxpayers that public funds are being put to good use
- Invite the public into classrooms for first-hand experiences
- Highlight the partnership between teachers, parents and students
- Celebrate the contribution that all staff and volunteers make in the school.
