Our 1st graders spent time today giving back to our school community by helping clean up the playground! 🌎🧹 Students worked together to take pride in keeping our outdoor spaces beautiful and safe for everyone. They also wrapped up their butterfly unit by learning more about the butterfly life cycle before releasing their butterflies into nature. 🦋 What a wonderful way to connect learning, teamwork, and caring for our environment!

A huge thank you to Brian Niznansky from WTMJ for visiting our Kindergarten students today! 🌦️⛅️🌪️ Our students had an amazing time learning all about weather, forecasting, and what it’s like to be a meteorologist. Brian made learning fun, engaging, and interactive, and our Kindergarteners loved asking questions and sharing their weather knowledge! We truly appreciate the time you spent inspiring our young learners and helping bring science to life in such a meaningful way. Thank you for supporting our students and school community! ☀️🌈❄️ #ThankYou #WTMJ #BrianNiznansky #KindergartenLearning #WeatherFun #FutureMeteorologiat

An incredible opportunity!!

As reading scores in Wisconsin continue to decline, we have made noticeable gains at Racine Unified!

A renewed focus on early literacy has put our change in Reading Achievement on an upward trajectory for 3rd-8th-grade students since 2023. During that same time, the average of similar districts has fallen and leveled off.

Read more in this Wisconsin Public Radio article.

A graph displaying the change in Reading Achievement sind 2019 for 3-8 grade students. A notable takeaway is starting at 2023, test scores for RUSD began to climb while the average of the scores for Madison, Kenosha, Waukesha, Neenah and Green Bay's school districts continued to fall.
We are looking forward to seeing you at our Annual STEAM Fair tonight, Thursday, May 14th, from 4:30 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.

All guests must enter through the main entrance (Door 1). Additional parking is available at St. Paul Baptist Church, located at 1120 Grand Ave., if street parking is unavailable.

Please note that "Temporary No Parking" signs are posted around the school and neighborhood for Mayor Mason's Clean Sweep Program. Guests attending the STEAM Fair may park in those locations after 4:00 p.m. today.

We hope to see you there for an evening of creativity, innovation, and learning!
