                Proclamation 9589 of April 6, 2017

                
 Education and Sharing Day, U.S.A., 2017

                By the President of the United States of America

                A Proclamation

                At the core of the American Dream lies the belief that 
                our futures are not pre-determined and can be improved 
                through learning and hard work. On Education and 
                Sharing Day, we acknowledge the critical role of 
                families, schools, and religious and other civic 
                institutions in nurturing in our children the values 
                that enable them to realize the full scope of their 
                ambitions.

                Education and Sharing Day recognizes the remarkable 
                efforts of Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson, the 
                Lubavitcher Rebbe, to use values-based education to 
                drive our Nation's children toward the American Dream. 
                As an educator, Rabbi Schneerson understood that 
                education is incomplete if it is devoid of moral 
                development. Working through a spirit of optimism, he 
                strived to teach children to be honest, civil, 
                respectful of differences, and self-disciplined, in 
                addition to being intellectually rigorous.

                On April 18, 1978, our Nation's first Education Day, 
                U.S.A., Rabbi Schneerson wrote that ``we can neither be 
                satisfied nor slacken our efforts'' so long as ``there 
                is still one child that does not receive an adequate 
                education.'' These words inspire us today, as they did 
                then, to empower our children and share with each of 
                them the opportunity and promise of America. It is up 
                to us to support our children in realizing their hopes 
                and to encourage them to reach their fullest potential.

                NOW, THEREFORE, I, DONALD J. TRUMP, President of the 
                United States of America, by virtue of the authority 
                vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the 
                United States, do hereby proclaim April 7, 2017, as 
                ``Education and Sharing Day, U.S.A.'' I call upon 
                government officials, educators, volunteers, and all 
                the people of the United States to observe this day 
                with appropriate programs, ceremonies, and activities.

                IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this 
                sixth day of April, in the year of our Lord two 
                thousand seventeen, and of the Independence of the 
                United States of America the two hundred and forty-
                first.
                
                
                    (Presidential Sig.)
