Dear Friend,
I wish to invite you to learn more about our mission to revitalize 52 play spaces in Milwaukee. As superintendent of Milwaukee Public Schools, I know that stimulating and vibrant play spaces can narrow the achievement gap when young people are given opportunities to play and grow during their formative years.
As with all aging infrastructure, many of the playfields we manage are beyond their useful lives and no longer meet the needs of our community. That’s why MPS has already committed more than $5,000,000 through our Recreation Department towards the improvement of these play spaces.
On May 2, I’d like to show you our plan to bring these play spaces back to life and invite you to be a part of this unprecedented journey to create healthier neighborhoods in our city.
Best,
