About the REA
The Racine Education Association (REA) is the local professional union representing teachers, nurses, psychologists, social workers, and other faculty in the Racine Unified School District. We use the term professional union because we are both a professional association and a union.
In addition to our elected leaders, we have five professional staff helping to carry out our policies and programs and ensure member rights are protected. The staff is headed by the Executive Director who manages the rest of the staff, the program and the facilities for the REA. More >>
