The West Bend School District is committed to facilities that are: 

-- safe, secure, and accessible

-- welcoming, well maintained, and operationally efficient

-- adaptable to evolving student needs

On November 5, 2024, voters of the West Bend School District attendance area approved the facilities referendum with 18,470 "yes" votes. Thank you to the voters for supporting the students, staff, and community. When all the projects are complete in fall 2028, there will be a new Jackson Elementary School, security upgrades in all schools, many replacements and upgrades of outdated mechanical systems, and other facility improvements such as new windows and asphalt. 

This website will include updates on the planning and construction coming in 2024-2028. Contact Jen Wimmer, Superintendent, at 262-335-5435 or jwimmer@wbsd-schools.org with questions.

Many other materials from the referendum are available to review on the website in regard to facilities assessment, the community conversations, population trends, financial information, and survey details. See the West Bend School District website
