Aug 16, 2016 — Source: Post by Tamarra Coleman on the Kenosha Bradford High School Alumni Facebook Page Note: There is no argument or objection to this - it is simply to inform and update Tamarra Coleman 4 hrs · Kenosha I wanted to share this with all my fellow Bradford Alumni: As I reported earlier last week on August 10th, I sent an email to the Supt. and Board of Education, that as the President, and I was on the prevailing side, I'd like the Board to reconsider the vote that was done on August 9th at the Special Board Meeting - naming of the Bradford Stadium. Board Member, Rebecca Stevens, who made the original motion, also filed to reconsider, but did not do so in the appropriate timeframe. Below is what was sent to the Board of Education: ___________________________________________________ Kenosha Unified School District Kenosha, Wisconsin August 23, 2016 Motion to Rescind Action Taken at August 9, 2016 Special Meeting Policy 7410 – Naming an Area Within or on a District Site On Tuesday, August 9, 2016, the Board of Education held a special meeting to vote on naming the Bradford Stadium. Administration recommended that the School Board approve the Naming Committee’s recommendation that the stadium being constructed north of Bradford High School be named Mary D. Bradford Stadium. The motion and vote follow: “Ms. Stevens moved that the stadium being constructed north of Bradford High School be named the Olen Arrington, Jr. Stadium. Mrs. Snyder seconded the motion. Roll call vote. Ayes: Ms. Stevens, Mrs. Snyder, and Mrs. Coleman. Noes: Mr. Kunich and Mr. Garcia. Motion carried.” Per Board Policy 8810, number 5, I recommend that the Board rescind action taken at the August 9, 2016, meeting. I will be making a motion that the Board of Education accept the recommendation of the Stadium Naming Committee and name the stadium Mary D. Bradford Stadium. In addition I am requesting that the Board of Education review and/or update Policy 7400 – Naming or Renaming District Buildings and 7410 – Naming an Area Within or on a District Site by May 2017. Tamarra Coleman School Board President
