City Forward Collective: Joins community-wide calls for governance reform at Milwaukee Public Schools
City Forward Collective (CFC) in Milwaukee is advocating for transparency and reform at Milwaukee Public Schools (MPS) following financial revelations and Superintendent Keith Posley’s resignation. CFC’s Executive Director, Colleston Morgan, emphasizes the need for accountability amid financial mismanagement and academic challenges. Polling shows strong public sentiment for change. While initial steps like appointing a finance manager and deferring budget decisions have been taken, CFC calls for a forensic audit, transparency on financial disclosures, structural reforms, and a comprehensive search for a new superintendent. CFC urges Mayor Cavalier Johnson’s leadership to restore public trust, ensure accountability, and prioritize academic advancement in MPS.
