WI Lawmakers Call for School Spending Transparency

Wisconsin lawmakers want to make sure parents know exactly where their kids’ schools are spending their money.

Lawmakers held a hearing yesterday on a plan to create a statewide school spending transparency website. Senator Mary Felzkowski says the idea is to take all of the state and local numbers and put them in one, easy to use location. She says local schools and the state’s Department of Public Instruction already have the spending numbers, it’s just a matter of putting them online. Parents and advocates say they need to know what schools are spending money on and what they’re not.
