A conflict over a political ad recorded at the Three Lakes schools will not lead to a change in leadership.
The Three Lakes School Board issued a statement saying the board feels it remains in the best interest of students to continue under the leadership of Dr. George Karling. Karling has been the leader of the school district for 29 years.
A recent campaign ad for Governor Scott Walker showed Walker touring the Fab Lab at Three Lakes. Some people who appeared in the ad objected to being in a partisan ad and questioned whether the school district should be in such an ad.
The school board met and reaffirmed a policy of non-partisanship.
Karling apologized for the conflict, saying he failed to vet the reason for Walker's visit as thoroughly as he should have. Walker later told reporters his campaign staff had made it clear why they were at Three Lakes that day.
