Duncan Launches the National Teachers Initiative

The Initiative celebrates the brilliant and courageous work of public school teachers across the country. By recording, sharing, and preserving their stories, to call public attention to the invaluable contributions teachers have made to this nation, honor those who have embraced the profession as their calling, encourage teaching as a career choice, and unify the country behind its teachers—helping us all recognize that there is no more important or noble work than that of educating our nation’s children.
