Here’s what I could decipher . . . the school board meetings are so cryptic to me . . . If you want to figure it out, their website says “You can go here for help or e-mail Barb Osborn directly at bjosborn@madison.k12.wi.us or call 608-663-1659.” They also say “Please let us know your thoughts on this service by filling out the feedback form on the mmsd.org/board website, in the upper right-hand corner.” And so I thought I’d provide some “feedback, I clicked on that . . . it was terribly confusing, but you can email the school board at board@madison.k12.wi.us or the staff at comments@madison.k12.wi.us or fill out the form when you scroll down. Don’t click on the Board of Education under Feedback, because that will just take you back to the page telling you to click on Feedback.
