Schools Make Madison Summit 2024

This was a free event.

The 2nd Annual Schools Make Madison Summit, held on April 25th, 2024 at Thermo Fisher Scientific, was an electrifying convergence of educators, policymakers, innovators, and community stakeholders, all dedicated to revolutionizing education in Madison and beyond. The 150+ attendees were immersed in some perhaps unknown realities about school funding and budgets, the vital role social workers have in student success, and the mechanisms of the school nutrition program.

Attendees were immersed in learning about some perhaps unknown realities, creating a sense of awe and inspiration for all that is accomplished in our schools.

Past Attendee Testimonial:
“I wanted to congratulate you on a fantastic summit, and also express my gratitude as an attendee! Immediately after, I called my mom who is a retired educator and children’s healthcare lobbyist, and told her about how inspired I was by the programming. The need to do better for our children was the heartbeat felt throughout. The panelists were fantastic, the topics challenging and informative.” – Anne Ehrhart, SLED representative, Google public sector

Funding Wisconsin’s Future

Public schools are the foundation of our communities and democracy, yet Wisconsin has been steadily disinvesting in them for over 30 years. As the state’s budget process unfolds, we have a critical opportunity to advocate for adequate and equitable funding. Without it, districts face devastating cuts, forcing communities to shoulder the burden through local referenda. It’s time to demand stable, ongoing support for our public schools—because our kids’ futures can’t wait.
