H.Res. 380 is a symbolic resolution expressing support for designating May 5-9, 2025, as "Teacher Appreciation Week" in recognition of the nation's approximately 3 million public school teachers. The resolution does not create any new programs or allocate funding; instead, it affirms the value of teachers and calls for greater teacher input in education policymaking at federal, state, and local levels. The resolution emphasizes that teachers should have a stronger voice in decisions affecting their classrooms and notes survey data showing that most teachers support key education initiatives like Title I funding, protections against discrimination, and programs like public service loan forgiveness. By passing this resolution, the House would acknowledge teachers' contributions while urging leaders at all government levels to directly consult with educators when developing education policies.
