Daily Edition
Official observances, world days, local context, and everyday celebrations for people who need something worth reading, sharing, or talking about today.
A day for mending, sharpening, tightening, patching, cleaning, and giving useful things another round of life.
The day honoring teachers, and the celebration includes school events, the giving of gifts, and the recognition of the importance of education in a country where the literacy rate is 99%. The teachers are the heroes of Poland, and the day is both celebration and demand: more schools, more teachers, more books. The date commemorates the 1773 establishment of the Commission of National Education (Komisja Edukacji Narodowej), which was the first ministry of education in Europe.
