It’s Back to School Time!
The new school year is on the horizon. While parents cringe at the inevitable shopping rush and students excitedly look forward to the prospect of filling a cart with fresh back-to-school supplies and new clothes, the reality is that back to school shopping can be overwhelming and time-consuming. It’s a challenge to track down each item on a lengthy list and a feat of Olympic proportions when shopping for two or more children.
School Budget Highlights
- Our budget provides strong support for our public schools and the school choice programs, empowering parents to choose the school and type of education that is best for their child.
- Republicans continued funding public schools at our goal of two-thirds state funding, while also increasing funding for key categorical aids like special education, mental health and high-cost transportation aid.
- We provided a $325 per pupil increase in each year of the biennium—totaling $975 per student in new revenue over the biennium.

Brown County Fair time. We took in the Demo Derby as a family and I worked a few shifts in the 4H food stand. It was fun chatting with so many people.

My gal and I visited the Grignon Mansion and had a great time at the car show. It was amazing to see all the support for preserving the beautiful history of our area.
