Teachers’ Appreciation Day is observed in Chuuk State, part of the Federated States of Micronesia, on the second Friday of October. This holiday was established by the state government to honor the dedication and hard work of teachers in the region. The Chuuk State Department of Education organizes various events to express gratitude towards educators, highlighting their importance in the local education system. Education in Micronesia is modeled after that of the United States, with free and mandatory public education for children aged 6 to 14. The medium of instruction is English, and most teachers are trained at the College of Micronesia-FSM. The day serves as a reminder of the vital role teachers play in shaping the future of students in Chuuk.
