At the CESA 2 Delegate Convention on June 16, 2026, the Wisconsin Association of School Business Officials (WASBO) delivered a presentation detailing the current landscape of public school funding in our state.

The presentation highlights the key mechanics of state policy, including revenue limits, state equalization aid, and categorical funding for special education and English Learners. It also examines why a growing number of Wisconsin school districts rely on local operating referendums to maintain essential educational programs and services as state revenue limits lag behind inflation.

We encourage our community members to review the full presentation to learn more about how state-level education policy directly impacts our local district's budget and resources.
