[Lekooks] State Superintendent Race

[Lynne Smith]

Hello Kooks- Tomorrow is the primary for WI State Superintendent. My niece
has been on the Dodgeville School Board for years, and is very committed to
good education for all children in WI. She highly recommends *Jeff
Wright. *Someone
had previously posted an email to Lekooks from a family member who
erroneously stated that Jeff doesn't have the experience needed to address
the problems with Milwaukee Public Schools, saying he "has served in the
mostly white suburban district...of Sun Prairie." For the record, Jeff
moved back to his home state of WI from Chicago, and serves as School
Superintendent of Sauk County (not Sun Prairie.) And in fact, he was a
principal in the south side of Chicago for 6 years and helped transform an
all black school to very high standards. His accomplishments have been
applauded by Martin Luther King's lawyer, who stopped into his school to
congratulate him on the successes he was creating for black children!
Here is a link to Jeff's website, which explains his ideas for
addressing the funding issues of our schools, the shortage of teachers, his
concern about lowering the state standards (which current superintendent
Jill Underly has done and Gov Evers has called a mistake.), etc

Let's exercise our right to vote tomorrow!
Thanks for listening, Lynne
