Waukesha Schools Biggest Blunders

The Official Unofficial Best of the Worst of the School District of Waukesha

[Waukesha Schools Biggest Blunders @SDW_Fails]

Peering into our crystal ball, we’ll be able to look back in three years and realize Brooks is just a warm body to vote for anti-public school policies, and still as classless as he portrays himself in this tweet.

Any update?

Hold up. Districts can actually make statements like this? Someone needs to inform @waukeshaschools!!

If Waukesha School Board Candidate/carpetbagger/self-described mercenary Eric Brooks actually has a background in education, he must have gotten along with his co-workers fabulously!

[Waukesha Schools Biggest Blunders @SDW_Fails]

Waukesha School Board candidate/carpetbagger/political operative/self-titled mercenary Eric Brooks claims to have a background in education, both as a teacher and a child care worker, yet he’s provided no evidence to back that claim. Why isn’t he open about his job history? 🤔 🚩

Well what do we have here?! “Pour enough fuel on the fire, and it ends up blowing up in your face” could be the title to the upcoming autobiography of the Waukesha GOP. Zenobia and Piacsek will have no one to thank but themselves for a loss in the election.

Our statement concerning ongoing threats at Butler Middle School in Waukesha.

[Waukesha Schools Biggest Blunders @SDW_Fails]

Anthony Zenobia is going off the rails on his campaign page on Facebook. Below you can see an interaction with someone who’s a Waukesha parent. This is shameful behavior, an embarrassment to the board and the district.

Election Day is April 2.

Eric Brooks has released a campaign video extolling his teaching and childcare experience. While we commend everyone who cares for our children, we’re more interested in what he’s doing now. Which is? We don’t know. He not open about it. We can take a guess, though.

[Waukesha Schools Biggest Blunders @SDW_Fails]

Programs are being cut. SDW can’t afford to pay special education aides enough to keep them in the district. SDW’s current status isn’t a “great place,” unless you want to dismantle public schools.

[Waukesha Schools Biggest Blunders @SDW_Fails]

From the 3/2/24 @WaukeshaFreeman: FREEMAN: “Districts are continuing to face financial challenges and difficult decisions. How would you deal with this?” Eric Brooks’ answer is out of touch with the reality of SDW 🧵

[Waukesha Schools Biggest Blunders @SDW_Fails]

Mr. Brooks seems to have paid little attention to the districts’ finances in the last few years. SDW defines their current financial position as a structural deficit: there is less money to spend on education every school year. Teaching positions are being cut.

Our take? A simple “no, I can’t work with others I disagree with” would have been much easier than the word salad VP Zenobia provided to the Freeman. As shown in the e-mails from our previous thread, he has little interest and no ability to work with all stakeholders in SDW.

[Waukesha Schools Biggest Blunders @SDW_Fails]

The @WaukeshaFreeman published a Q&A with Waukesha school board candidates a couple of days ago and one answer to their final question is embarrassing for Board VP Zenobia. 🧵

[Waukesha Schools Biggest Blunders @SDW_Fails]

“and with it, our nation’s school boards are more reflective of the people they represent. I will be cheering on these patriots all the way!”

[Waukesha Schools Biggest Blunders @SDW_Fails]

What Zenobia says to the Freeman: parents who don’t feel like they’re heard will leave the district. What Zenobia does: make parents he disagrees with feel like they’re not heard. What Zenobia’s endgame is: to either create a homogeneous district or tear down public schools.

Yesterday the @WaukeshaFreeman published a Q&A with the 5 candidates running for 3 seats on the school board. This week we will be analyzing some of the more significant responses from the candidates. Today we’re taking a look at Board VP Anthony Zenobia’s response to one q: 🧵
