Open House is on October 14
Jackson Elementary School is the site of the next West Bend School District 2024 Facilities Referendum Open House on Monday, October 14. The event begins at 6 p.m. and community members can stop in anytime through 7:30 p.m. to explore key aspects of the referendum, including financial details, capital maintenance projects, building closures, and grade-level reconfiguration.
There will be no formal presentation; instead, the open house format allows participants to engage directly with administrators and representatives from the district’s financial, architectural, and construction partners. This is an opportunity to ask questions and learn more about the proposed design and construction phases at your own pace. Tours of the school will be given.
