The Winona Area Public School District board on [date not specified in the transcript] approved a package of fiscal and operational actions, including a Truth-in-Taxation levy resolution, budget timelines and assumptions, ratification of employment agreements and acceptance of donations.

The board heard a reading of the Truth-in-Taxation resolution setting proposed levies for collection in 2026 that totaled approximately $13.24 million across funds, then seconded and approved the resolution by roll call. The board also voted to adopt the 2027 budget development timeline and the district's set of budget assumptions; administration said those assumptions will be populated using the enrollment projection the board selected tonight.

On enrollment, the board selected ‘‘Option G’’ as its working enrollment projection. Director Slavi explained that Option G uses a 30% kindergarten capture rate with a four-year cohort-retention assumption and that further enrollment updates will be provided in January and February.

Labor and personnel agreements also moved forward. The board approved a two-year settlement with the Winona Education Association that administration said will cost about $2,145,636.65 over two years and will have a modest general-fund balance impact. The board approved an amended maintenance contract and accepted a nonunion student-nutrition personnel agreement; administration estimated the food-service changes would cost roughly $200,000 over three years and be borne by Fund 2.

The board accepted a long list of donations across athletics, activities and instructional programs with a combined value read into the record of $178,655.92; the superintendent noted a larger package of $143,681.04 tied to the Foundation for Winona Area Public Schools that included acoustical shells. One board member recorded an abstention on the donations vote.

The meeting concluded with the superintendent's announcements about winter break and the January organizational meeting. The board recorded formal roll-call votes for major actions; detailed motion texts and roll-call results are recorded in the meeting minutes and transcript.
