2023-2024 PEACE Educators
Teachers and school personnel work with students every day. They know what is needed to amplify silent voices, to make invisible gifts visible, and to surround individual learners with the best possible resources. Most of our educators work in Suffolk County schools. As PEACE expands, we hope to include experiences from many educators.

2023-2024 PEACE Cultural Partners
Teaching artists, museum and gallery experts, community organization staff, and other humanities, science, and cultural practitioners provide essential understanding about the limitless ideas that can be intertwined with school curriculum. Many of our cultural partners live and work on Long Island. As PEACE expands, we will include creative ideas from around the world.
