Previous Meetings

The discussions from previous meetings of the Milwaukee Board of School Directors are available in text, audio, and video formats.

Board Proceedings (Minutes)

The Proceedings (or minutes) are the official record of the Board's actions. The publication of the Proceedings will always be a month behind, as each month's Proceedings are not published until they have been approved at the following month's regular meeting of the Board. For example, the Board approves the October Proceedings at its regular November meeting.

The Proceedings begin with the Board's annual organizational meeting—usually held on the last Tuesday in April and included in the May Proceedings—and end with the Board's last regular meeting the following April.

Current Board Year's Proceedings (PDFs)

These are organized month by month (May 2025 through April 2026). There is also a file that includes all the approved monthly proceedings to date.
