This resolution expresses Senate support for designating the week of April 6-10, 2026, as "National Assistant Principals Week." The resolution honors assistant principals' contributions to education by recognizing their broad responsibilities, which include instructional leadership, maintaining safe school environments, managing daily operations, and building community relationships. The designation was initially established by the National Association of Secondary School Principals, the National Association of Elementary School Principals, and the American Federation of School Administrators. This is a symbolic resolution with no funding or enforcement mechanisms—it simply encourages Americans to recognize and celebrate assistant principals' vital role in supporting student success and school leadership during that designated week. The resolution was introduced by Senator Durbin and three colleagues and referred to the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions.
