How is Cudahy governed and funded?

2026–27 budget publication

A seven-member elected board governs the district. Local property taxes, Wisconsin state aid and federal funds support the schools. The 2026–27 publication lists a $15,164,107 proposed levy and balanced General Fund revenue and uses of $38,995,100.91.

School reconfiguration

December 2025 minutes record approval of 2026–27 boundaries moving Jones students to General Mitchell and Kosciuszko students to Lincoln. The 2026 budget publication lists closure of those two elementary schools as a financial change.

Student devices and AI

The posted device policy restricts use during school hours with emergency, health, IEP/504 and teacher-authorized educational exceptions. Academic honesty policy requires teacher permission for AI schoolwork and citation when generated content is incorporated.

Curriculum

In May 2026 the board adopted StudySync for grades 9–12 English and Experience Science for grades 5–8 with a K–4 pilot. Minutes record 7–0 votes; actual implementation and price were not verified.

The budget labels the levy proposed; later final board adoption and certification were not independently verified. Current actual per-pupil spending and the effect on an individual property bill were not established.
