It’s National Public Schools Week, which began on February 26 and runs through March 1, to celebrate the achievement of public schools and honor the significant contributions and accomplishments of educators, school leaders and school board members.
The goal of Public Schools Week is to put the spotlight on public education and recognize the critical role our schools have in preparing our children for successful futures.
Help spread the word about the outstanding work happening in our schools by posting on social media and thanking the educators and administrators for the work they do. You can also get involved in our Maine Loves Public Schools campaign by telling your positive stories and pictures that highlight the work and success stories that happen every day in public education.
That campaign is supported by the Maine School Superintendents Association, Maine School Boards Association, Maine Principals’ Association, Maine Administrators of Services for Children with Disabilities, Maine Curriculum Leaders Association, Maine Administrators for Career and Technical Education, Maine Association of School Business Officials, Maine Education Association, Maine Department of Education, Educate Maine, Live + Work in Maine, and the department of the Maine Secretary of State.
