Shullsburg School District Operating Referendum

Community Information Session

The Shullsburg School District will hold a $750,000 recurring operational referendum on April 7. The purpose of the referendum is to ask voters to approve additional revenue authority to support the district’s ongoing operational costs.
The district has taken steps in recent years to manage expenses while continuing to offer academic programming, extracurricular activities, and student services. Despite these efforts, rising costs and limited growth in state funding have created budget challenges that affect future planning.
If approved, the referendum would allow the district to maintain current programs, staffing, and student opportunities. If the referendum is not approved, the district would need to consider additional budget reductions to address projected shortfalls, which could impact classroom instruction and opportunities for students.
Community members are encouraged to review the information available to better understand the referendum and its potential financial impact on the district.
