Mequon-Thiensville School District
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Mequon-Thiensville School District (MTSD) is a school district that serves the Milwaukee suburbs of Mequon and Thiensville, Wisconsin. As of 2008, the superintendent was Demond Means.
The district has a ratio of 16 students per teacher.
In recent years, the district has faced fiscal problems as enrollment started to decline and a new state formula was implemented in school funding. Voters rejected a $7.5 million budget increase in February 2006.[1] The district has hired a fund raiser, former local television personality Dennis Krause, giving him the title of Community Resource Director.
