Improve & Innovate: Referendum Updates

On November 8th, 2022, voters approved both Appleton Area School District referendum questions on the ballot. We are heartened by our community’s support of our current and future students. We cannot wait to get started on improving and innovating our buildings to support Success for Every Student Every Day.

The approved $129.8 million capital referendum question will allow us to expand, renovate, and modernize our schools. Several projects will begin the design phase immediately with construction to start next summer. The design and construction of all of the projects will be staggered over the next two and a half years.

Progress and updates on referendum projects will be shared below. We encourage you to follow along to see our community’s investment in action.

Our district places immense value on neighborhood elementary schools, and we are thrilled to add a school to this neighborhood.
