MILWAUKEE — The superintendent of Milwaukee Public Schools resigned Tuesday, with Wisconsin’s largest school district in jeopardy of losing millions of dollars in state funding after not submitting required financial reports to the state.
In addition to potentially losing millions from the state due to missing report filing deadlines, millions of dollars in federal funding are also being withheld from the district’s Head Start program after officials discovered abuse and lack of supervision in Milwaukee Public Schools programs. The district received $14 million from the federal Head Start program in the most recent school year, according to district budget materials.House Democrats expected to vote on $53.1B budget as Republicans complains of overspending“We want you gone. No more playing games,” resident Elizabeth Brown said during Monday’s meeting calling for Posley’s removal.
The school board accepted Posley’s resignation around 2 a.m. Tuesday after a closed session that began at about 8 p.m. Monday.
