MILWAUKEE — A Milwaukee Public Schools Town Hall to address a $252 million referendum has been moved to the Wisconsin Black Historical Society.
The town hall, organized by Aisha Carr, a Milwaukee School Board Director, was originally scheduled to place at Washington High School On Wednesday, March 27.
A second meeting was scheduled to take place Thursday at the District Office near N. 53rd St. & W. Vliet St.
According to a release from the Office of Board Governance, they were made aware of the potential town hall meetings this week and said that no town hall meetings were scheduled due to MPS being on spring break.
