Supporters of the resolution aserted that in the business world, employees don't receive additional pay to help train new employees. The resolution was narrowly approved, 200-170. The rationale for the resolution notes that the WASB policy book includes references to the authority of school boards, but does not reflect support for a statewide system of locally governed school districts managed by elected officials.
Local control equals local support.

Resolutions offered from the floor by Racine, Waunakee, La Crosse and Stevens Point did not receive the necessary two-thirds votes to be taken up by the Delegate Assembly.
