How Long Teacher Appreciation Week Has Been in Existence
Celebrations for teachers date back for decades. Teacher appreciation started as one day. Confederating with Congress in 1953, Eleanor Roosevelt voiced the need for assigning of a national day in honor of teachers as it produced the National Teacher Day, which would then start the wider movement.
National Education Association (NEA) later took it up to increase the celebration because of the soaring advocacy and awareness given the importance of educators. It stretched by 1986 into a whole week of recognition and got to be what we now call Teacher Appreciation Week.
