An Ashland family has filed discrimination complaints against the Ashland School District with the U.S. Department of Education Office of Civil Rights and the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction.
In the complaints, the Maday family claims there is a pattern of discrimination against Native American students and staff in the school district. The complaints include examples of discriminatory treatment, including declarations from the former school nurse, a former school board member and another parent who is part of the same tribe.
