Oconomowoc & Madison

I read with interest Madison School Board President Ed Hughes' blog post on local spending, redistributed state tax dollars & property tax increases. Mr. Hughes mentioned Oconomowoc:

Superintendent Cheatham and new Assistant Superintendent for Business Services Mike Barry (recently arrived from the Oconomowoc school district to replace Erik Kass) promise a zero-based approach to budgeting for the 2014-15 school year, so the budgeting process promises to be more lively next year.

Mr. Hughes, writing on May 3, 2012: Budget Cuts: We Won't Be as Bold and Innovative as Oconomowoc, and That's Okay..

Alan Borsuk recently followed up on the changes (fewer, but better paid teachers) in Oconomowoc.

Rocketship and Avenues are also worth looking into.
