At its May 25, 2017 meeting, the Milwaukee Board of School Directors referred Resolution 1718R-001 by Directors Bonds and Sain to the Committee on Accountability, Finance and Personnel.
Since that time, the Chief of School Administration has communicated with the school leadership regarding the potential name change. The school community is in support of pursuing a name change, and the Regional Superintendent has been working with the school community on moving forward with the process in alignment with the resolution.
