“Education is the key to unlocking the world. It is the passport to freedom.” - Oprah Today kicks off #AmericanEducationWeek, celebrating public education and everyone who works in our nation’s public schools. ✏️ Annually, NationalParkTrust supports 314 schools and over 20,000 students in 43 states, including the Virgin Islands and Washington DC. This amazing feat is due mainly to the dedicated work of partner school communities across the country. From bus drivers and classroom teachers to cafeteria workers and administrative staff, and countless others. #Education #Educators #ThankYou #PublicSchools #BuddyBison
