With a new Milwaukee Brewers postseason journey comes new food offerings at American Family Field.

Delaware North and Blackshoe Hospitality have revealed a handful of new food options at the ballpark — some that will be available throughout postseason, and others that will only be around for the first round.

Milwaukee — the No. 3 seeded team in the National League — will be facing the No. 6 seeded team in a best-of-three wild-card series at the Brewers stadium. That series is currently scheduled for Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday.

“We are excited to offer new menu items to our fans during the postseason,” Kevin Jezewski, Delaware North’s general manager at Am Fam Field, said in a news release. “Our goal is to enhance the game-day experience with delicious food and beverage options that reflect the excitement and energy of playoff baseball.”

If the Brewers progress through postseason play, additional menu items would be announced, the release noted.

New food options available throughout the Brewers postseason

• 2-foot Nacho Box: A bed of tortilla chips topped with pulled chicken, fresh pico, scallions, jalapenos and sour cream in a 2-foot Brewers Nacho Box.
• Triple Play: Two bratwursts, cheese curds and french fries.

New food options available exclusively during the first round of the Brewers postseason

MILWAUKEE — It’s been nearly ten months, and there is still no clear timeline on school resource officers (SROs) in Milwaukee Public Schools.

The topic of SROs was on Thursday night’s MPS board agenda. However, it was discussed behind closed doors.

TMJ4’s Megan Lee asked President Marva Herndon to provide an update on the SRO plan before the board went into a closed session.

“We’re going into a meeting now, and we have an extensive agenda. We aren’t prepared to do that at the present time,” Herndon said.

State law mandates that Milwaukee Public Schools have 25 school resource officers in place by Jan. 1, 2024.

The City of Milwaukee recently started adding more pressure for officers to return to schools, and the state continues to urge the school district to comply.

“I have been very clear with Milwaukee Public Schools that they need to implement the SRO law—I mean, it’s law. They have been told they need to do it,” State Superintendent Jill Underly said.

Underly told TMJ4 she has tried to be understanding because of the recent crisis at MPS.

“I have been patient, you know, giving them some grace. They have had new leadership, and it was something—in all fairness—that the previous leadership and administration should have done,” Underly said.

The district released a statement nearly two weeks ago saying it had reached an agreement with the Milwaukee Police Department. However, the Milwaukee City Attorney refuted that claim.

Here is the full transcription between Lee and MPS Board President Marva Herndon:

Megan Lee: We’re just looking for an update from you guys because its been 10 months.
Marva: Not at this present time.
Megan Lee: When can we expect an update on SROs considering it is state law that you guys have SROs. Marva: We’re going into a meeting now and we have an extensive agenda. And we aren’t prepared to do that at the present time.
Megan Lee: Could you do it after? Can you do it tomorrow?
Marva: We’re waiting to get the appropriate information.
Megan Lee: Ok.
Marva: That’s the best I have.
Megan Lee: Are you happy with the status of your SRO plan or program?
Marva: No comment

Late Thursday night, a spokesperson with MPS sent this statement:

“MPS remains ready to implement an SRO program as soon as officers are available. Discussions are underway to advance the final implementation of the program. MPS is committed to reaching a consensus that will support the successful implementation of Act 12 in a manner that is sustainable and mutually beneficial. The timeframe to have the program in place is dependent on when fully trained officers will be available to the district. The board may go into closed session to discuss crime prevention and detention strategies and negotiation strategies.”

MILWAUKEE – The Milwaukee Board of School Directors on Thursday announced the start of its search for a new Milwaukee Public Schools superintendent.

The board is scheduled to receive an update from Hazard, Young, Attea and Associates – the search firm leading the effort – at a Thursday night meeting. In collaboration with HYA, the school board said it is organizing “stakeholder engagement sessions” to gather input from the community.

Details about those engagement sessions will be available on the MPS website next week. The sessions will include:

• Group Forums: Open forums will be held to allow community members to share their thoughts and expectations for the new superintendent.
• One-on-One Conversations: HYA representatives will engage in individual discussions with local leaders to gather detailed insights.
• Community Sessions: Dedicated sessions will be organized to hear from different community groups, ensuring broad representation.
• Zoom Opportunities: Several virtual sessions will be available to provide feedback, making it convenient for all stakeholders to participate.
• Online Survey: An online survey will be launched to collect input from those who may not be able to attend the sessions in person.

The former superintendent, Keith Posley, resigned in June after it was revealed the district failed to report important financial data to the state. The state threatened to withhold millions of dollars in funding as a result.

In July, the school board voted to appoint Eduardo Galvan as MPS’ interim superintendent.
