GET ME REWRITE: Meet the Whitnall School District board member spoon-fed by the Tighty Whities at the Wisconsin Institute for Law and Liberty

 
HeadlineMilwaukee Journal Sentinel, 9/12/2023
On Monday night, board member Karen Mikolainis urged her colleagues to consider the model policy from the Wisconsin Institute for Law & Liberty, which is currently suing multiple school districts over policies that support transgender students. 
Most other board members Monday were skeptical of the proposal, leaving its future unclear.

Meanwhile....

School board member Quin Brunette said the board has been "dysfunctional" and he is hopeful that Taylor will be adept, given her experience in Oconomowoc, where she saw four board members resign in a few months' time. 
"She weathered that storm there," Brunette said. "Hopefully she'll be a good leader that we desperately need." Brunette said board members have "brought the political aspect into the boardroom." 
He pointed to discussions in September, when board member Karen Mikolainis proposed implementing a model policy from a conservative law firm that would have forbidden school staff from using students’ chosen names and pronouns without guardian permission. Brunette was among board members who disagreed. 
"We all need to look at ourselves, and try and conduct ourselves in a better way," Brunette said.
