"Robarts Served a Valuable Role"

Wisconsin State Journal Editorial:

The taxpayers of Madison owe Ruth Robarts a big thank you.

Robarts has served on the Madison School Board for a decade, asking pesky questions about how tax dollars are spent and how Madison children are educated.

What she lacked in tact she made up for in candor and an unflinching commitment to changing a school system that, while strong, is too often thin-skinned and resistant to scrutiny.

Perhaps a bit early for the eulogy, but well said. Much more on Ruth here and here
