Congratulations Trustee Freise

It was exciting to watch school board trustee, David Freise receive his “Certified Board Member” award at the Washtenaw Association of School Board’s Legislative Breakfast from Dr. William Miller, the WISD Superintendent. Mr. Freise completed his certification requirements in 12 months – this included classes on finance, curriculum, legal issues, technology and more.

The Legislative Breakfast provided an opportunity for Trustee’s Freise, Medley and VanHoek to share concerns and ideas with our state legislators. State Senator’s Brater and Richardville were present along with State Representative’s Alma Wheeler-Smith, Pam Byrnes and Rebecca Warren. As has been the case for the last several events – budget led the agenda. We also discussed high school graduation requirements, full day kindergarten and election reform.
