Background Information
The Southern Door School District is beginning the important work of preparing for a new operational referendum that will go before voters in April 2026. Ensuring the long-term sustainability of our schools requires thoughtful financial planning, transparency, and—most importantly—community partnership.

Over the last year, district leaders attended town board meetings, held a community roundtable event, met with local organizations, and connected with individuals and small groups to answer questions and listen to feedback. These conversations have been invaluable in helping us understand community priorities and in guiding the financial decisions we make for our students, staff, and facilities.

How Will Survey Results Be Used?
Now we need your voice. We are asking students, staff, parents, and community members to complete the Strategic Priorities Survey located below. Your input will directly help the administrative team and Board of Education make informed decisions about the upcoming operational referendum—especially in determining how dollars should be allocated across our priority areas.

By engaging in this process, you play a vital role in shaping the future of Southern Door Schools. Together, we can ensure that Southern Door remains strong—today and for years to come.

Due Date
Please complete the survey by Friday, October 31, 2025.
