SchoolsFirst Federal Credit Union, the largest credit union in California and the largest serving school employees and their families, today announced its sponsorship of monthly school employee recognitions at Sacramento Republic FC matches during the 2024 season.

At each of seven matches, March through September, one teacher and one classified school employee from a local school district are honored for their exemplary work and dedication to creating an inspiring learning environment for students. Each school district represented by the honorees receives 65 tickets to the match, so school employees and their families can attend.

“We’re excited about our partnership with Sacramento Republic FC, because we value the team’s commitment to the Greater Sacramento community and their interest in supporting excellence in education,” said Josh Smith, vice president, school and community relations for SchoolsFirst FCU. “Each of the 14 individuals honored during the 2024 season exemplify creativity and initiative, qualities that benefit Sacramento-area schools, students and the community,” said Julie DePrada-Schott, specialist, school and community relations for Schools First FCU.
