Reminder

See you on Tues. Jan. 20th.
We invite you to help us identify the educators whose stories should be told. Nominate a colleague, or yourself, for The Passions Project 2026!
Nomination form: https://tinyurl.com/mwwhbtvs
Your nomination ensures that the authentic voices and experiences of our staff are represented and celebrated. Together, these narratives will shine a light on the humanity, commitment and passion within our school community.
Learn more about The Passions Movement at www.thepassionsmovement.com
THE PASSIONS PROJECT, spearheaded by Racine Educators United (and with support from the NEA CAPE Grant) is designed to uplift educator voices, celebrate the power of public education and help our community better understand the incredible work happening in our schools every day. Through this initiative, we hope to highlight the dedication, diversity and resilience that define Racine’s educators with a visual storytelling series that will feature 10 public school educators and the mentors who shaped them. Each story will be brought to life through professional portraits and video interviews.
