Spotlight on Education: Sheboygan Area School District Annual Budget Presentation for 2024-2025
The Sheboygan Area School District (SASD) is gearing up for its Annual Budget Presentation for the 2024-2025 school year, a pivotal event that underscores the district’s commitment to delivering exceptional educational experiences while keeping costs manageable for taxpayers.
This year’s budget presentation and public hearing will take place on Tuesday, October 22, 2024, at the Sheboygan Area School District Administrative Services Building, located at 3330 Stahl Road. The session provides an important opportunity for community members to stay informed and participate by offering their public comments on the proposed budget.
What’s On the Agenda?
The Board of Education will outline key financial aspects that affect the district’s operations. The presentation will cover:
- A breakdown of the total SASD budget, offering insights into how funds will be allocated across the district.
- A historical look at State Aid and the tax levy, providing context for current funding decisions and taxpayer impact.
- The mill rate and potential impact of a successful referendum on district operations and funding.
