Milwaukee Public Schools Wasted $102 Million On Construction

The MPS came up with the brilliant idea that if they spent a boat load of money on building additions and renovations they would be able to save money on busing kids all over the place.  You may not think that saving money on busing wouldn't amount to much but considering they spend almost $60 million a year on busing the kids to the 90+ schools throughout the district - the plan would offset this colossal waste of money.
So, to get around the need for a public vote on a referendum - which was defeated several years before 3 to 1 - they came up with a brilliant way around it.  They came up with a way to circumvent the taxpayers (voters) and secure $30 million a year in busing aid.  This is how you get the MPS $102 million construction waste.

They spent over $100 million on buildings that are sitting empty, rooms that are sitting empty and rented buildings that aren't used.  Bravo you dumb asses.  No wonder the students the schools in Milwaukee produce are some of the worst in the nation........look at the so called adults.
