Good morning, Waukesha.

Couples arriving at Rustic Manor 1848 in Delafield will drive through a construction zone (with full closures on Cardinal Land and Oakwood Road) as WisDOT works to repair Highway 83.

The work began in April and will finish in the fall to resurface the road and improve turn lanes.

Waukesha police arrested a suspect with an armed robbery warrant after he fled on foot following an alert from Waukesha Memorial Hospital—an off-campus Carroll University building on Sentry Drive was placed on lockdown out of caution, with university officials confirming that nothing occurred on campus.

Waukesha North High School alumna and author Kathie Giorgio asked to have her name removed from the school’s Wall of Stars after the district banned the donation of her books from its libraries.

Giorgio said the decision was confusing because many of her books feature high school-age protagonists—criteria she believes fit the school library’s focus on a core curriculum.

The School District of Waukesha launched a long-range planning process called Optimizing Our Future to address a drop of roughly 3,000 students since 2012 by holding public sessions in spring 2025, where families, staff and community members can review data from its 23 facilities + share ideas. District leaders plan to reduce capacity by 10% to 15%, which may lead to closing or repurposing schools + any approved changes will take effect no sooner than fall.
