Secretary Arne Duncan Thanks Teachers
Teachers are doing “the most important work…in our country today,” Arne Duncan says in a new video for the Teaching Channel that is timed to the Thanksgiving holiday.
The Secretary also encourages Americans to thank a teacher on Nov. 25 as part of the “National Day of Listening” organized by the StoryCorps oral history project. On this day — the day after Thanksgiving – Americans of all ages are invited to talk with or about a favorite teacher.
