Celebrate Education Week - Learning is a Journey
Every three years, the Alberta Teachers' Association, in collaboration with Alberta Education, chooses a theme to help schools and locals plan activities that send consistent messages supporting public education to the community.
The theme from 2017-2020 is, Learning is a Journey, and intends to profile the role that education plays in all of our lives in shaping the province’s future. It’s a great time to celebrate teachers’ proud legacy in public education and work toward an inspired future that includes the following:
- Optimal learning conditions for every child
- Creative and innovative learning programs
- Students who enjoy learning and who achieve their learning goals
- Parents and communities that are involved and supportive of learning
- School leaders who are also teachers
- A well-thought out curriculum delivered by well-prepared professionals
- Opportunities for teachers to continue developing their skills as professionals
