Public schools unite us
It’s important to celebrate the amazing things happening in our public schools across Wisconsin. Amplifying the work of our public schools and the students, educators and staff who bring them to life helps to show that they deserve the conditions they need to do what they do best.

Contact us to tell your story – every public school district in Wisconsin has great educators making connections like these!
