In the Ohio Schools’ December/January issue, you’ll meet Twinsburg teacher Daneé Pinckney whose efforts to start an African American literature course for her students and empower them to be engaged citizens helped reignite her passion for teaching. As 2025 Ohio Teacher of the Year, Pinckney hopes to help other educators rediscover their passion while focusing on what they need to succeed for their students.
The issue celebrates the launch of OEA’s new website, 2024 Public Education Matters Day events, and the U.S. House of Representatives passage of the Social Security Fairness Act (HR 82) to repeal the Windfall Elimination Provision (WEP) and the Government Pension Offset (GPO). Also included are updates on retirement systems and pending legislation, the importance of claiming your ethnic minority status, and OEA Awards and Scholarships.
