Background:
|
Section 121.85(3) of the Wisconsin Statutes allows the Board to enter into annual written inter-district transfer agreements with school districts for the purpose of reducing racial imbalance.
The Administration is requesting authorization to enter into contracts with 14 suburban districts, specified in the attachments, to provide funding for transportation services for students participating in the Inter-District Transfer Program (Chapter 220).
For the 2022-2023 school year, six(6) of the 14 remaining participating school districts will arrange their own transportation: Fox-Point-Bayside, Elmbrook, Germantown, Menomonee Falls, Mequon-Thiensville, and Nicolet. Reimbursement for transportation services will be funded by Milwaukee Public Schools.
For the 2022-2023 school year, Milwaukee Public Schools will arrange transportation services for 8 of the 14 remaining participating school districts: Greendale, Greenfield, Hamilton/Sussex, Oak Creek/Franklin, Shorewood, Wauwatosa, Whitefish Bay, and Whitnall. |
