Referendum
Funding the Projects
Taxpayers in the Slinger School District approved a $42 million referendum, part of which was directed to the work at Addison and Allenton Elementary Schools. The remaining amount supported improvement projects at the district’s third elementary school and its middle school, as well as major renovations and a new performing arts center at Slinger High School.
