Nominate Your Business Friends of Education

Wednesday, February 14, 2018

Do you have a business partner who has contributed to student success in your community?  Consider working with your Business Friend of Education to have them formally be recognized by the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction State Superintendent.  Thirty-five Business Friends of Education were officially recognized this week for their contributions to our public schools.  Career and Technical Education Month is a great opportunity to showcase many of our partnerships that enhance academic & technical skill attainment, develop leadership through our career & technical student organizations such as FBLA, and connect classroom learning to work-based learning opportunities.  Our community partners work with many of our schools toward the goal of preparing every student to be college & career ready.  The press release from February 13, 2018 (web version, PDF version) highlights our first round of recipients since this recognition program was redesigned.  

Additional information and application forms can be found on the Business Friends of Education website.
