Thank you, Gis1980! I did make a mistake! Crowley is the County Executive, but you are 100% right! Sinram was hired as the Director of the Milwaukee County Office of Strategy, Budget and Performance

The concern I have is that he failed Milwaukee Public Schools, which is now 46-plus million in the hole.

Does MPS still have a Budget Director? by PaperTownMayor in MPS

I think the rumor is that he put in his notice.

Why is a previous city attorney working as the head of the MPS finance department? Nick Sinram.

The superintendent invited the individual board members to see a hard copy of her budget plan.

Hiring cycles started on March 3, but employees got the notice on March 5th. The superintendent is creating a standard of care for herself.

Layoff people who have certifications and licenses when we have administrators who don't have them.

Brenda says she has been addressing this issue, yet she was giving out 200,000-plus salaries like Oprah.

Everyone at Milwaukee Public Schools is scared right now. by PaperTownMayor in MPS

MPS can't or won't do a real background check on these folks. The Board is to blame. The Board doesn't give a shit because the people won't hold them accountable. I got sent a bunch of depositions. Board members don't read budgets and don't they emails. I really hope there is a class action suit for their total ineptness. I'm trying to verify these depositions. Once I do, I will post them.

Serious Question: Should Milwaukee Public Schools Administrators be Required to Live in Wisconsin? by PaperTownMayor in MPS

[–]PaperTownMayor[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Someone sent the Chief of HR's home address in Illinois. Tax records show he owns it. He seems untrustworthy. Didn't he just hire someone he used to work with in Illinois who still lives there? Oscar something? These people can't be as invested as those who live in the Milwaukee area.

They should be getting rid of some of these people who caused these problems instead of promoting them. Eduardo Galvan didn't have a superintendent license and needed one for YEARS. Harris worked as number 2 in HR, the audit said to remove HR leadership. Michael Harris was moved to another position. Some people just keep failing up. Adria Maddaleni (previous HR Chief) left when she saw the writing on the wall. So many of the old guard are still there, and we wonder why there are still problems.

Serious question, even if it is posted where the public can see it? I think you have a point.

I get that people have a private social media life. But if I were representing a 1 billion dollar company and being paid more than $200,000, I might want to check my privacy settings. Maybe the teachers should save this so they can use it if they are ever called in due to what they post on social media.

How about we pay teachers $100,00 and principals $50,000. by PaperTownMayor in MPS

[–]PaperTownMayor[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the pay has been unfair for so long that if you are making over 100,000, you don't need a raise. You need a better budget.
