Members of Steering Team Want to Hear from YOU
The School District has made a concerted effort to reach out to, meet with, listen to and thoughtfully consider the viewpoints of all persons in the Elmbrook community. This includes those who organized and were active on both sides of the April 3, 2007 referendum defeat.
A renewed effort is underway to determine the potential answers to what to do about the needs at the District's two high schools. BOTH those who voted "no" and those who voted "yes" to one or both of the two questions will be actively involved in the work.
Your ideas, suggestions and opinions are welcomed and encouraged by the co-chairs and members of the Steering Team.
The co-chairs of the Steering Team are:
Jerry Theder
(pr. Thee-der) Jerry is a long-time community member, retired vice-president of Eaton Corporation responsible as CEO for Cutler-Hammer in Milwaukee. He voted "no" on the April 2007 referendum.
