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there will be a new Jackson Elementary School, security upgrades in all schools, many replacements and upgrades of outdated mechanical systems, and other facility improvements such as new windows and asphalt.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 webpage includes materials from the facilities assessment activities and referendum in 2023 and 2024. Contact Jen Wimmer, Superintendent, at 262-335-5435 or jwimmer@wbsd-schools.org with questions.
