We celebrate National Educational Support Professionals Day every year on the Wednesday during American Education Week, falling on November 19 this year. The National Education Association Representative Assembly established this day to honor the education support professionals who work day in and day out for public schools’ well-being and effective functioning. These professionals also play a vital role in forming a healthy community as they help students inside and outside the classroom. There are nine services under the Education Support Professionals umbrella, including clerical, custodial and maintenance, food, health and student, para-educators, security, skilled trades, technical, and transportation services. If you’re interested in this as a career and need some financial assistance, there are many education scholarships available on Schoalroo.
Austrian National Day
Austrian National Day is celebrated on October 26. It has been 56 years since this day was declared an official holiday. Did you know, on this day, Austria adopted the Federal Constitutional Law on the Neutrality of Austria? This is the day on which Austria stated its neutrality and decided that it will not be involved in any military alliances and won’t allow any military bases to be established in its territory. This day is also celebrated as Day of the Austrian Flag and declares the re-establishment of Austria’s sovereignty after World War II. This decision for Neutrality became part of the national consciousness of the Austrians.
