Teacher Appreciation Week

We appreciate our teachers

Teachers help students learn, grow, and discover new possibilities every day. During Teacher Appreciation Week, May 4–8, San José Public Library thanks teachers for all they do. We are here to support you with free educator resources, including an Educator Card, classroom-friendly materials, digital tools, and an educator email newsletter.
