What East Troy Community School District does

East Troy Community School District is a Wisconsin government entity and public school district serving students from age 3 through grade 12 through four schools: Little Prairie Primary School, Prairie View Elementary School, East Troy Middle School, and East Troy High School. Its service portfolio includes general and special education, English-learner support, advanced learning, summer school, Academic and Career Planning, athletics, and fine arts. Students and families are the primary customer group; annual registration is handled through Skyward, and Wisconsin open enrollment allows some attendance from outside district boundaries.

Technology is deployed as district operating infrastructure rather than as a proprietary commercial platform. Every student has access to a device through the 1:1 initiative, while Skyward supports records, registration, and payments; ParentSquare supports communications; Stopfinder supports bus tracking; Xello supports career planning; Google Workspace supports collaboration; and the Rural Virtual Academy supplies online courses and live classes. No proprietary AI model or externally sold technology product is disclosed.

Funding comes from property taxes, Wisconsin equalization and categorical aid, voter-approved operational and capital referendums, and family fees for registration, courses, sports, yearbooks, parking, and similar items. The 2025-26 Fund 10 expenditure budget is $26,322,896 for 1,541 three-year average membership, or $17,082 per member, and personnel costs are 68% of district costs. A $3 million annual operational referendum supports 2023-24 through 2025-26, a $19.4 million capital referendum was approved in 2024, and a $4 million annual replacement referendum was proposed for 2026-27 through 2028-29.

3. State Categorical Aid: Categorical aid for specific programs including per-pupil aid, transportation aid, and special education aid. Special education reimbursement rates may increase to 42% but still do not fully cover special education costs.
4. Operational Referendum Funding: Voter-approved operational referendum allowing district to exceed state-imposed revenue limits. Current 2023 referendum ($3M/year for three years) expires end of 2025-26. Proposed 2026 referendum asks for $4M/year for three years (2026-27 through 2028-29).
