May was abuzz across the state of Wisconsin, and the bees weren't the only ones frenzied with activity.
State Superintendent Dr. Jill Underly was also underway-- visiting schools and libraries, delivering remarks and participating in panels. And of course doing what she loves most-- meeting with students, educators, and parents. Here is just a selection from Dr. Underly's May itinerary. (Recap Dr. Underly's travels to announce the 2025 Teachers of the Year here!)
Thank you to the staff and students for showing off their thriving gardens and classrooms thanks to programs funded by a USDA Farm to School grant. Their hard work is paying off!
It was exciting to see the ways Racine Unified Schools is focusing on early literacy and delivering high-quality reading for all learners.
The best part? Eating everything you just learned! Hopefully students will take what they've learned into a summer full of outdoor time, learning more about their passions, and of course, preparing and eating great food!
