School Board Member Recognition Week
in Mississippi

February 17-21, 2025

School Board Member Recognition Week in Mississippi typically takes place the third week of every February.

More than 700 Mississippians are members of local school boards. They are responsible for setting the vision and goals for the district they serve. School board members work to provide a quality education for K-12 students. They lead and serve our districts and communities, and it is important to acknowledge their hard work! 

Although showing appreciation should be a year-round process, taking advantage of this designated week ensures that these important people receive some of the appreciation they deserve!
