Resolution 1920R-004 .pdf
Background: At its May 30, 2019 meeting, the Milwaukee Board of School Directors referred Resolution 1920R-004 by Director Peterson regarding a vision and plan for the schools our students deserve to the Committee on Student Achievement and School Innovation.

The Administration is in agreement with the intent of the resolution, and is recommending its adoption. The Administration is suggesting a small amendment regarding flexibility in the timing of the plan being brought back to the Board. While the Administration will try to bring it back during the next Board cycle (July), the flexibility of having one additional Board cycle would be helpful in developing a quality plan. Therefore, the Administration has amended the last Further Resolved to reflect bringing the plan back to the Board no later than the August Board cycle.
Fiscal Impact Statement: This item does not authorize expenditures. Upon adoption of the resolution by the Milwaukee Board of School Directors, and after stakeholders have been engaged to create an outline of a vision to ensure that all students get the public schools they deserve, the Administration will conduct a complete fiscal analysis of what it would cost to implement the outline as called for in the resolution.
Implementation and Assessment Plan Upon adoption of the resolution, the Administration will develop a detailed plan and process to engage stakeholders in creating an outline of a vision of what it would take to ensure that all students get the public schools they deserve.
Recommendation: Your Committee recommends that the Board adopt Resolution 1920R-004 by Director Peterson regarding a vision and plan for the schools our students deserve as amended.
