News & Events

Appleton Area School District

AASD leadership is gathering community input on established criteria that will be used by the Board of Education in setting attendance boundaries for Sandy Slope Elementary School. These new boundaries will determine student enrollment at Sandy Slope and ensure the efficient use of resources.

Improve & Innovate
In the fall of 2022, voters approved both referendum questions on the ballot. One question supported increased staffing and operational costs for our new spaces and the second question approved $130 million for the construction/renovations of our schools.
 
Progress, timelines, and updates on referendum projects will be shared on our district website. We encourage you to follow along to see our community’s investment in action.
