What if you threw a party and nobody came?

Earlier this week, there was a historic meeting of sorts at City Hall. Members of the RUSD communication meeting met with the legislators of the city of Racine. A similar event happened earlier in the year when a RUSD board committee met with the trustees of the outlying villages in the district (Caledonia, Mt. Pleasant, Sturtevant, Wind Point, etc). Their collective goal is to better understand the problems faced and to work TOGETHER to find solutions!


What amazes me is this! It's not that the RUSD board is asking for help, but that these meetings are so poorly attended by the lay members of the community!


Although, the meeting with the villages was better attended than the one in the city - it was still sparsely attended. Perhaps the city meeting was not well advertised, I certainly hope that is the reason.


I cannot believe that the reason is that so few people care...
