It is Board of Education candidate forum season and everyone is getting into the act (full list at the bottom). That includes Sustain Dane and the Isthmus, who are co-sponsoring a forum. All good, except they have chosen Dave Cieslewicz as one of the moderators and today our ex-Mayor endorsed two of the candidates. Nice standards of fairness.
The list is below, but the next one deserves an extra plug. The Northside Planning Council and the East Attendance Area PTO Coalition are old hands at this and know the issues. Should be one of the better and more informative forums: Thursday, March 1, 6:30–8 p.m., Warner Park Community Rec Center, 1625 Northport Drive (flier here).
