What happened

In Feb.-Apr. 2026 the board heard from two insurance brokers, voted March 18 to use USI as its broker and to leave the Wisconsin Counties Association, and on April 15 approved the 2026-27 health plan 4-0 along with dental and vision plans. In March the board also discussed whether to stay in the Walworth County health insurance group (no action recorded).

Why it matters to families

Health insurance is a major cost for a school with about 260 students, and the change affects employee benefits and the budget.

The evidence

Feb. 23 special-meeting minutes (broker presentations), Mar. 18 minutes (two 5-0 votes), Apr. 15 minutes (plan approvals).
