Yellowhammer Times

Alabama is marking a period dedicated to recognizing the contributions of its educators. The state has launched "Thank Alabama Teachers Month" as an initiative to show appreciation for teachers' work in schools and communities.

Governor Kay Ivey addressed the importance of this observance, stating, "Thank Alabama Teachers Month is a time for us to express our deep gratitude to the educators who dedicate themselves each day to preparing our students for success. Our teachers are among the most important influences in the lives of Alabama’s children, and their commitment shapes the future of our state."

Various activities and acknowledgments are planned throughout November to highlight the impact teachers have on education and student development across Alabama.
