American Education Week starts November 13th to the 17th in schools across this nation, a celebration since 1921 to raise awareness of the importance of education. What are you doing to honor those who make a difference in the lives of our children? This is a week to THANK educators for their role in our schools. They are the administrators, teachers, custodians, bus drivers, teachers’ aides, and any others that play a part in our children’s education. Plan to focus on each day by:
In the spirit of Service, Not Self, the mission of the American Legion Auxiliary is to support The American Legion and to honor the sacrifice of those who serve by enhancing the lives of our veterans, military, and their families, both at home and abroad. For God and Country, we advocate for veterans, educate our citizens, mentor youth, and promote patriotism, good citizenship, peace and security.
