WAUWATOSA, Wis. (CBS 58) -- Wauwatosa voters got another chance to learn more about the two school referendums they'll see on their November ballots. 

The district hosted another informational session at Underwood Elementary Tuesday night, Oct. 15. 

A presentation laid out what would happen if the referendums pass, including the effect on their taxes. 

People also saw what would happen if neither measure passes, which could result in cuts to staff and programs. 

One visitor told us she wants kids to keep getting an education that includes arts and physical education programs. 

"I think the Wauwatosa community would be hurt a lot if these schools - if the referenda do not pass," said Karen Crook, of Wauwatosa. 

There is one more of these informational sessions before Election Day.

Next Tuesday evening, Oct. 22, the district is hosting a session at Wilson Elementary School. The presentation begins at 5:30 p.m.
