Steve Edlund
Steve Edlund is a former at-large member of the Waukesha School Board in Wisconsin. He served on the board from 2010 to 2016.
Governing majority
2015
From January 2015 to December 2015, the Waukesha School Board voted unanimously on 85.1 percent of the 94 motions brought forward by board members. The board approved 100 percent of the motions recorded during regular meetings in 2015. These totals exclude motions to approve board minutes or procedural votes. Because of the high rate of unanimous votes, a governing majority could not be determined.
Dissenting votes
Steve Edlund opposed 10 of the 14 measures that were not unanimously approved in 2015. Karin Rajnicek voted no on five of these non-unanimous measures, joining Edlund on four occasions. Of these four motions, one dealt with foreign language as an elective option for sixth-graders, two dealt with facilities upgrades and one sought to exceed revenue limits on a non-recurring basis. There were no board votes in 2015 where more than two members voted in opposition.
Absences
Edlund, Rajnicek, William Baumgart, Ellen Langill, and Kurt O'Bryan each missed one meeting in 2015. No board meetings in 2015 featured more than one absent member.
Issues
Votes on fiscal or budgetary issues accounted for 27 motions or 28.7 percent of all motions brought to the board in 2015. District procedures and personnel decisions accounted for 24 motions each or a total of 51 percent of all motions. The board also voted on 14 curriculum motions with a scattering of votes for athletics, board procedures, and charter schools.
