About WEAC

We advocate for great public education for the common good
Public educators are respected partners in developing an innovative and responsive educational system within each community that creates caring and responsible citizens of a global society.
The public schools we have today are the result of the investments, ingenuity and commitment of those who have come before us. Together, we embrace advocacy, collaboration, professionalism, social justice and economic security for Wisconsin's public school students, families and educators.

WEAC President Peggy Wirtz-Olsen
I know that our schools are better when educators have a voice and a say in the conditions for their students.
