The School Board will vote on the location of the Alternate School at it's next meeting on May 26 (7pm at the District Office). They will choose to either locate the school of 25 high school students to either Nichols where it would be self contained or to Winnequah where the school would share space with 3rd-5th graders.
I just have to wonder what Monona residents are thinking of this? I heard many people stand up and say that they did not want the smallest children of Maywood (pre-K through 2) mixing with the older children of Winnequah (3-5 graders next year). That would put the age ranges of children at 4 years old to 11 years old. Now we are talking about putting 8 year olds with 18 year olds? Haven't parents already said that they don't like this scenario? Is the Board not listening? Or is there something that I am missing?
