Children can sense things and they know the truth. Photo: Sarah Huckabee Sanders signs LEARNS Act that creates universal vouchers + other mandates. Video: Tim Walz signs law guaranteeing free breakfast + lunch for all students, regardless of how much money their parents make.

Please consider taking one minute to help save the librarians in my district. It would be catastrophic if we lose them: saveschoollibrarians.org/no_…

County Stadium and Comisky. Both, and yes, I know the question. Geography and familial based.

Communities across Wisconsin have approved 881 school district referenda since 2014, an average of over two per district. Our school funding formula is broken, and if we don’t fix it our kids’ futures are at risk.

We hate to say we told you so, but the last several state budgets have made clear-as-day decisions that led us to today, with record-breaking numbers of Wisconsin school districts resorting to referenda to keep their lights on. #BeAVoter tomorrow, April 2! pbswisconsin.org/news-item/w…

The most important thing for principals to understand, is that the teachers are the most important resource in the building.

"Unless something drastically changes in the state funding formula over the next four years, we’re going to probably have to ask our community for even more funding." There are 91 school referendums on the ballot across the state on April 2. Read more: ow.ly/LJ3P50QZ6k3

Public education advocates gathered at the Capitol today in support of our kids. The 2023-25 state budget left our local schools behind. 91 districts had to go to referendum this spring to make up the difference. This cannot continue - we must fund our kids’ futures!

A study showed that teachers who acknowledged their students at the door as they entered class saw a 20% increase in academic engagement and a 9% decrease in disruptive behavior. If you want to lead people, you must connect with them first. Relationship > Transaction

WI teachers have never been paid what they deserve, but since 2009, their salaries have fallen 12% vs. inflation. If we want to attract and retain quality educators, we need to pay them like the highly-trained pros they are. My “Teaching is a Profession” package does that.

These voucher schools are never about education, always about the money.
Dear Wisconsin. School vouchers do 3 things, and 3 things only. Funnel public taxpayer funds for religious indoctrination, line the pockets of billionaires, and fail.

Coach Stormoen's leadership has made the Green Devil football program a winning one. I learned a lot from him during my time wearing the green & white!
Regardless of your political affiliation, former AF Football Captain - Chris Unterberger represents everything about a small town community in Wisconsin.

Dr. Julie Underwood: “The voucher and independent schools have been draining resources from Wisconsin’s public schools for too long. We believe these programs are unconstitutional and hope the Wisconsin Supreme Court ends them now.” wispolitics.com/2023/wiscons…
