What happened

The board recapped the April 7, 2026 referendum results at its April 8 meeting, and later meetings describe the referendum as passed. A statewide list of spring 2026 referendums also shows the Nekoosa question as passed. Staff said it let the district bring back reading and math helpers in the middle school.

Why it matters to families

The extra money covers up to $2 million a year for five years and helps the district keep staff and programs while enrollment falls.

The evidence

April 8, 2026 agenda and minutes list a referendum results recap. The May 11 and July 15 recordings say the referendum passed and funded interventionists.
