Trustees reviewed the district’s student academic standards for the 2026–27 school year and heard that the district follows Wisconsin standards in most subjects while specifically using the Next Generation Science Standards and the district’s own health standards. A board member asked whether anything had changed since the previous year; staff replied there were no substantive updates other than some link changes on the DPI website.
A motion was made to approve the district’s student academic standards for the 2026–27 school year and to direct the district administrator to issue public notice; the board voted and the motion passed.
