We, the undersigned, urge the Board of Directors to investigate the morning entry procedure at Milwaukee HS of the Arts. The entire process takes too long and keeps students out of the classroom for long periods of time. We recommend the following:
1. Use the front doors (not the exit to 24th street)
2. Create a pre-made label or pouch for student phones so students do not have to create a new label every day.
We believe these changes will greatly improve the morning entry process.

I attended in 97 to 2001 to have the entire school using such a small entranceway makes no sense when there’s such a large front door access. There is no reason to have these children hurdled in like cattle and miss out on class .
I’m an MPS parent and am frustrated to hear that the school entry procedure is so inefficient this far into the school year. I’m glad that folks are speaking up and look forward to quick improvements!
This is utterly unacceptable. The bag checks are necessary. But should have students like an alumni like myself, Getting to their classes LATE. Get someone faster to do it or FIND A MORE CONVENIENT SOLUTION.
I thought this was taken care of to this point. Students have been complaining about this for four years. Where is student voice!!!
My stepdaughter attends this school and I would like a safer way for her to start the day!
As an alumni from there and proud social worker now, we don’t treat our students like that. Do better please!

As an MHSA alum, I know firsthand how unsafe and time-consuming the school entry process can be. Students deserve to have time to get into school, visit their lockers, and have breakfast before class starts.
