Thank You Teachers!

Today is the first day of Teacher Appreciation Week 2019, traditionally celebrated during the first full week of May. Teacher Appreciation Day is the Tuesday of the week, which this year is May 7. This week is an opportunity to thank teachers everywhere for the hard work that they do every single day of the school year.

Adult education teachers provide so much to their students – inspiration, knowledge, encouragement, opportunities, and the tools they need for a brighter future. Teachers change the lives of adults in California every day, and their work and impact extend far beyond the walls of the classroom. Through AEP and other initiatives, adult educators continue to create deep connections in their communities with other partners for the ultimate benefit of our parents, workers, and fellow citizens.

If you are a classroom teacher, we thank you this week! If you’re not a teacher, take a moment to thank one! You can send a thank you card (pictured above) to a teacher/teacher(s) and share on social media to show your appreciation!
