Background: On June 25, 2020, Resolution 2021R-005 regarding Central Region staffing was introduced and referred to the Committee on Accountability, Finance and Personnel. The resolution was discussed at the July 30, 2020 and September 24, 2020 Board meetings, at which time the Administration provided additional analysis as requested by the Board.

At the September 24, 2020, meeting, the Board approved a motion to send the resolution back to committee. The motion also included direction to the Administration to form a task force to review possible revisions in current policies or procedures to increase the recruitment and long-term stability of employees working in hard-to-staff schools.

The Administration formed the task force and monthly meetings and monthly reports to the Milwaukee Board of School Directors have taken place since October 2020. The task force includes representation from the Board, central administrators, school leaders, parents, and the MTEA.
