A Milwaukee K-12 Referendum Event
Join us Friday, March 22, for our popular virtual event series, Forum Friday! This installment will focus on the April 2 referendum that will ask city of Milwaukee voters whether the Milwaukee Public Schools should be allowed to exceed state revenue limits by $252 million annually after a phase-in over four years.
We’ll begin with a brief presentation that will lay out the facts about the ballot question and its impacts on taxpayers. Then we’ll interview MPS’ superintendent on the need for additional dollars and how they would be spent. We’ll follow that up with a discussion with three panelists who have extensive knowledge of K-12 education in Milwaukee and MPS’ financial needs.
