In 2007, the New York State
Legislature officially designated the third Tuesday of each November as
School-Related Professionals Day—as a special day to honor and celebrate
school-related professionals including school bus drivers, food service workers,
teaching assistants, school nurses, custodial and maintenance workers, and
clerical and support staff in schools.
So whether you are driving our
students on a bus, feeding our children in the cafeteria, cleaning our hallways
and classrooms, or assisting teachers with our learners, your hard work and
dedication is much appreciated.
We thank you today and every
day for going above and beyond to meet the needs of our schools and our
students.
