Banting Outlines Redistricting Plans for Waukesha County
Banting, retired city superintendent, outlined a three district plan for Waukesha County high schools at a Rotary luncheon. The proposal would place Ocunemowee Hand in one district, Menominee Falls in a second, and Waukesha Mukwanago Pricauker in a third, with a district board supervising each and no village losing its high school. He argued the plan, backed by a state mandate, aims to equalize educational opportunities across the county.
