Summary
The Kenosha board approved the 2026 summer‑school proposal at the same total funding level as 2025 — $1,779,957 — with minor staffing and nursing cost adjustments noted.
The board approved the district’s 2026 summer‑school funding request of $1,779,957, the same total allocation used for the preceding two years.
Administration said enrollment patterns for summer school vary by level (elementary up slightly; middle and high school down slightly) and that summer staffing and nursing costs are under review. Summer pay increases were adjusted to follow base salary changes, which administration said has improved hiring for summer programs.
The board voted to approve the recommendation, noting the administration’s pledge to align staffing with actual enrollment and operating constraints.
Next steps: Administration will implement the approved plan, monitor enrollment and staffing, and report outcomes in the next fiscal cycle.
