Who Are Wisconsin Schools Really Working For?

This week on 365 Amplified, Rob Chappell, Omar Waheed, and Stephanie Díaz de León dig into Wisconsin's latest school district report cards and ask a hard question: who actually benefits from how schools are graded? The conversation explores racial achievement gaps, how DPI weights "economically disadvantaged" students, and why some districts can earn top scores while deep racial disparities remain.

The crew also reacts to the newly announced women's soccer team, Rally Madison, unpacking the name, branding, symbolism, and fan response — plus what it says about women's sports, marketing, and who teams are really built for.

Later, Rob sits down with Fitchburg City Council member Donald Dantzler, who's running for re-election and for Dane County Board. Dantzler reflects on his first term, major city projects, housing and transportation challenges, and why county government plays such a critical — and often overlooked — role in people's daily lives.

The episode wraps with the weekly question: if you had a warning label, what would it say?
