Supporting the designation of the week of April 28 through May 2, 2025, as "National Specialized Instructional Support Personnel Appreciation Week".
HRES 355 is a symbolic House resolution designating April 28-May 2, 2025, as "National Specialized Instructional Support Personnel Appreciation Week." It recognizes over 1 million school support staff - including counselors, psychologists, nurses, therapists, and social workers - who provide critical educational, emotional, and behavioral services to students. The resolution encourages policymakers to raise awareness of their role in creating safe school environments and improving student outcomes, but it does not create new laws or funding. As a procedural resolution, it has no legal effect beyond expressing support for these professionals.
