Introduced
Summary
Designates the week of May 4–8, 2026 as Teacher Appreciation Week and spotlights the Nation’s roughly 3,000,000 public school teachers. The resolution would recognize teachers' essential role in student learning, record that many feel unheard in key education choices, list teacher-backed priorities such as student nondiscrimination protections, Title I and IDEA funding, Public Service Loan Forgiveness, and culturally relevant materials, and encourage federal, state, and local leaders to engage teachers and include their expertise in policymaking.
