People. Purpose. Pride. Building for the Future. 💙

Last night, we had the privilege of celebrating the people who make Madison Metropolitan School District stronger every day at our inaugural People, Purpose, Pride — Building for the Future Leadership Celebration.

As MMSD plans for the future of a growing city, we know that our greatest strength is our people — the educators, staff, community partners and advocates who help students thrive and create opportunities for generations to come.

Congratulations to our 2026 award recipients:
🏆 People Award – Sonia Spencer
🏆 Purpose Award – Kirsten Fruit
🏆 Pride Award – Nkauj Nou Vang-Vue
🏆 Legacy Award – Melinda Heinritz

We are grateful to all who were nominated and to every individual whose leadership, dedication and commitment help shape the future of our schools and community.

A special thank you to our sponsors — TruStage, IMEG, Henricksen and Madison Public Schools Foundation. Their investment in public education and belief in our students helped create an unforgettable celebration honoring the leaders who are shaping the future of Madison.
