SAA To Continue The Fight On WiscNet
By Wisconsin School Administrators Alliance staff | March 16, 2012
As we expected, AB 473 / SB 375, which would extend the time by which WiscNet must end its relationship with the UW System by one year, to July 1, 2014, failed to get the traction necessary to pass the Legislature. In short, the telecoms had the Assembly Republican leadership sowed up from the beginning on this issue. However, we had a great opportunity to educate legislators on the importance of reliable, affordable bandwidth and other Internet services for Wisconsin school districts. The good news is many understand that we have a policy problem that must be addressed.
The SAA will continue the fight on this issue. And we will keep the membership apprised of any important developments.
