This week, May 2-8, 2011, is both National Teacher Appreciation Week and National Charter Schools Week. AAE is pleased to recognize both American educators and charter schools this week and every day. Read Secretary of Education Arne Duncan's statement on the occasion here. It goes without saying that AAE is not only a committed supporter of American educators but charter schools as well. We work hard every day to support teachers in all arenas under the guiding principles of membership service, choice in affiliation, and professionalism. This week is a special occasion for our members in all education settings. In commemoration of this important week in education, AAE's Executive Director Gary Beckner has released the following statements: "Everyone has a teacher in mind that has made a significant impact in his or her life. American teachers ignite passions and shape the people we become. This week is National Teacher Appreciation Week, an opportunity for not only students to celebrate their teachers, but a way for everyday Americans to recognize their hard work. AAE is proud to empower teachers across the country, this week and always."
