American Education Week, 1966, should be a time for every American to commit himself anew to completing the unfinished business of American Education—and to developing new and more helpful ways to enrich the minds of our citizens in years to come. NOW, THEREFORE, I, LYNDON B. JOHNSON, President of the United States of America, do hereby designate the period of November 6, through November 12, 1966, as American PMucation Week. I call upon all the people of the United States to take an active part in the progress and improvement of American education. I ask the citizens of every community to seek every means of advancing the excellence of their schools and fulfilling the educational needs of their school children. I urge educators and laymen to join in common diligence to strengthen our educational system at every level. Above all, I propose that we establish, as our great and immediate goal, the translation into complete reality of our long-cherished hope for full and equal educational opportunity for all Americans. IN W I T N E S S WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the Seal of the United States of America to be affixed. D O N E on this twenty-sixth day of October in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and sixty-six, and of the Independence of the United States of America the one hundred and ninety-first.
