This district is located adjacent to the Minnesota/Iowa border. The Republican Dictatorship that rules Wisconsin continues to defund public schools while Minnesota just sent a 2 BILLION dollar funding increase to keep it's public schools #1 in America. Wisconsin is declining while Minnesota is the economic engine of the Midwest.

We strongly urge prospective teaching candidates to leave school districts like this for the much higher pay and benefits offered in Minnesota districts. Stay out of Iowa as that state screws teachers even worse than the MAGA Republican Dictatorship that rules Wisconsin.
