The San Antonio Chamber of Commerce continues our support of the #TeachersCan initiative, a statewide effort to elevate and appreciate the 350,000+ teachers in Texas, by celebrating World Teacher’s Day. In honor of our educators, the Chamber will light its building in light blue the evening of October 5. The 2020 World Teacher’s Day theme is “Teachers: Leading in crisis, reimagining the future.” Teachers have continuously showed the community their dedication to the academic and social/emotional learning of our students. Educators are at the forefront of shepherding the children in our community through the aftermath of the pandemic and into a future with hope and possibility. We invite everyone to join the celebration of our teachers!
