American Education Week, also referred to as National Education Week, has been officially celebrated since 1921. It is a week to honor public education in our country, states, and communities. It is typically designated as the week before Thanksgiving, and is used to celebrate all of the people and programs involved in public education.
We are proud of the educational system that we call the Kirksville R-III School District--this week and every week! #kvtigers #kvproud #welovekirksville
