Celebrating Education Week 2025
Education Week 2025, May 11 to 17, is a special opportunity to acknowledge educators, school support staff and partners for their outstanding work. This year’s theme, Empowering Futures: Innovation in Education, celebrates educators who have gone above and beyond in their efforts to infuse innovation into their classrooms and schools.
We applaud educators, school staff, and partners who embrace innovation in meeting the evolving needs of students in preparing them for a rapidly changing future.
