The School District of Sheboygan Falls is Hiring!
Did you know? Our elementary school is over capacity.
With a designed capacity of 533 students, the school’s 2023-24 enrollment was 588. We expect an additional 140 elementary-aged students in the next 10-12 years, potentially putting the school nearly 200 students over capacity.
Built in 2000, SFES is approaching its 25-year mark and requires significant updates to its infrastructure and facilities.

A 2023 community survey indicated a growing need for more childcare options in our community. Staff members indicated that childcare would make the district a more attractive place to work and could help with recruitment and retention efforts of additional high-quality teachers and staff.
Families and local business owners noted they were in need of more affordable childcare options. Additional slots are needed, as many local providers have no openings available. Families also expressed a need for additional childcare hours before and after school, as well as in the summer.
Adding a 10,000 square-foot daycare center to Sheboygan Falls Elementary School would cost an estimated $4.6 million.

17 Sheboygan Falls students returned home from Costa Rica yesterday. They went rafting, zip-lining, and adventured through the rainforest during our last few days. Every day of the trip was filled with plenty of language and cultural experiences too! Special thanks to the Ozaukee group for being great travel companions.

The SFHS team made it to Costa Rica! What a trip!
Sheboygan Falls Elementary School, built in 2000, is approaching its 25-year mark and requires significant updates to its infrastructure and facilities. The key areas needing attention include:
➡️ Boilers and chillers have reached the end of their useful life and need to be replaced. There are also leaking windows and doors, and sections of the roof require replacement.
➡️ The school currently lacks fire sprinklers, which are essential for safety.
➡️ Furniture, flooring, and paint have experienced over 20 years of wear and tear and need repair or replacement.
To address these issues, our elementary school needs significant investments in infrastructure, safety systems, and space optimization to continue providing a safe and effective learning environment.

Community input continues to be a key element of the Board of Education’s long-range facility planning process. We want to thank all the community members who have provided their thoughts thus far, including through our recent survey!
At this time, the most pressing needs exist at our Elementary and High Schools. There is also a present and growing demand for more childcare options in our community, along with a need to improve our athletic facilities.

Over the past two years, the Board of Education and District leaders have been evaluating the District’s facility needs and investigating possible solutions. This work is part of the district’s long-range facility planning process.
This process has included staff feedback, a third-party assessment, community tours, and conversations throughout our community. The District also surveyed our community members in Spring 2024.
The Board will continue to study and consider this issue throughout Summer 2024. If the Board decides to place a referendum question on the ballot for this November, it would likely vote to do so during its regular meeting on August 19th, 2024.
