LANSING - School districts throughout Michigan celebrate Michigan School Support Staff Week from April 21-25, 2008.

Throughout Michigan, school support staff play a vital role in the day-to-day operations of schools and preschools. School support staff's role in support of teaching and learning directly affects the morale and performance of students, teachers, and administrators.

"School support staff are an essential complement in the success of students, teachers, and administrators," said State Board of Education President Kathleen A. Straus. "These professionals provide nurturing, caring, learning support, and a safe and appropriate environment."

Michigan School Support Staff Week serves as a fitting time for schools and communities to appropriately recognize School Support Staff and the vital role they play in the success of the learning community.
