Referendum
Funding the Project
Taxpayers in the Slinger School District approved a $42 million referendum, part of which was directed to the high school‘s new performing arts center. The remaining amount supported the renovations throughout the high school, as well as building additions and upgrades at the district’s three elementary schools and middle school.
