Milwaukee Journal Sentinel Editor Greg Borowski Knows Better Than This. For Shame! [JESS NOTES 11/12]

I know Milwaukee Journal Sentinel Editor Greg Borowski knows better than this. He just does. C’mon, Greg! Get real. I used to sit across from Greg in the newsroom before I decided to pursue a teaching career instead (it’s hard to have a young kid in journalism.) Greg was a good reporter. To be honest, I never really saw him as having editor potential, though. He was too introverted and a bit surly. More like an intense absent-minded scientist type in a rumpled shirt with a lot of intensity boiling inside (not that different from his brother, who is one of the only sane #Milwaukee County judges, David Borowski, and one of the most bombastic). Pity the poor readers who called the newsroom to complain and got an earful from Greg. I heard him blow a gasket a few times.

Most Milwaukee students not attending MPS schools

(The Center Square) – For the first time, most students in Milwaukee are not attending one of Milwaukee’s public schools. Marquette University Law School senior fellow Alan Borsuk published his research in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel on Wednesday. "Half of the children who live in the city of Milwaukee and who receive publicly funded education are enrolled in the Milwaukee Public Schools system. And half are enrolled in schools that are not part of MPS," Borsuk wrote. "It’s a reality with major implications." Borsuk's research shows that there are 104,363 students in Milwaukee this year. He said that about half, a little more than 50,000 go to either private voucher schools or public charter schools. "More than 50,000 Milwaukee students are now getting education outside of MPS schools. Whether you like school choice programs or not, whether you like or dislike the impact of school choice on the conventional public school systems, you can’t ignore the reality: None of those 50,000-plus children were assigned to go to non-MPS schools. Such assignments would be against the law. The kids are there by choice," Borsuk added. Will Flanders, with the Wisconsin Institute for Law and Liberty, said the choice part of Borsuk's
