American Education Week Spotlight

American Education Week Spotlights

November 22, 2022

American Education Week is celebrated this year, the week before Thanksgiving, November 13-19, 2022.

The purpose of the weeklong acknowledgement is to shed light on the important work of the team of people who provide educational support to our students, in and out of the classroom. This includes everyone from the bus driver and classroom teacher to teaching assistants and parent support roles within our schools.

We honor and acknowledge the hard work and contributions of all district staff. We are proud to share video stories of three dynamic RCSD employees during this week:
