Last year, the Dons completed a nearly identical season in terms of their overall record, but fell in the regional final. This season, Columbus Catholic returned re-energized, and put together a year in which it snagged a 10th consecutive Cloverbelt East Conference title and swept three of four playoff matches to return to the Resch Center and WIAA state tournament.

Wisconsin state education spending expected to increase under Democrats

(The Center Square) – Democrat David Crowley has vowed to increase school spending from the state and will have the legislative backing to do so after Democrats swept the Wisconsin legislature and governorship in Tuesday’s election. While Republican Tom Tiffany had vowed to return the state’s $3 billion surplus to taxpayers, Crowley has said that he plans to use the funds to increase the state’s funding of schools in an attempt to lower the property tax obligations of taxpayers. Local school districts, however, will continue to have the ability to increase school district levies by $325 per student per year for the 400-year period that began after Gov. Tony Evers used his partial veto power to erase numbers and a hyphen to change the year “2024-25” to “2425” in a school appropriation in that budget bill. Crowley is required to offer his budget proposal to the legislature by Jan. 26, 2027. While the Joint Legislative Finance Committee from a Republican legislature pushed back on Evers’ proposals and changed the plan for the past two budgets, Crowley will now be met with a Democrat-led legislature.
