Friday 5/8/26: School referendums, Economic Check-In, sea shanties vs. maritime music

Today on Lake Effect, we explore how school referendums are growing the funding gaps between school districts, and what that means for students. Then, we check back in with a local farmer about how he’s weathering economic changes. Plus, we learn the difference between a sea shanty and maritime music – with the founder of the International Maritime Music Directory, based in Racine.
