The headline for an editorial this morning expresses the hope and expectations for the new board: "Time ripe for MPS reform." But will MPS be noticeably more effective in two years than today? Will the public perception that MPS is irrelevant to the daily lives of Milwaukeeans--reflected in the miserable voter turnout--start to reverse?
The challenge for the reformers is to develop a few priorities that will start to reconnect MPS to its communities. Their danger is that they heed the calls to build a consensus with the defenders, resulting in little reform, poorly implemented.
