What is Public Schools Week?
Public Schools Week is February 24-28, 2025. It’s an annual week-long celebration dedicated to honoring the invaluable contributions and achievements of educators and education advocates in our public schools and the communities they serve. Led by the Learning First Alliance (LFA), a coalition of 12 national education groups with a collective membership exceeding 10 million, Public Schools Week invites the education community, parents, lawmakers and others to join us in spotlighting our nation’s public schools and the dedicated individuals behind them. We invite you to join us in celebrating and supporting our public schools during Public Schools Week and all year long.
