MADISON, Wis. (AP) — A new report shows Wisconsin voters approved a record number of school referenda in 2024 elections. The Wisconsin Policy Forum released a study Thursday that found school districts held a record 241 referenda this year. The old record was 240 set in 1998. The approved referenda authorized a record $4.4 billion in new funding for school district, breaking the old record of $2.7 billion set in 2020. The report attributed the record number of referenda to inflation outpacing increases in the state's per pupil revenue limits.
