WISD Thanks Voters for Renewing Special Education Millage
With 73.82% of voters supporting the special education millage renewal, constituents of the Washtenaw Intermediate School District (WISD) have shown their continued support for public education.
This decision will continue to provide local public schools with essential funding specifically designated for mandatory special education services. It also preserves $57 million in general funds that can be used to support programs and services benefiting all students, including instructional and support staff, extracurricular activities, advanced placement coursework, mental health supports, school safety, improvements to learning environments, and more.
“This millage renewal will positively impact every classroom in every school district across Washtenaw County, and we are grateful to our community for their continued support and commitment to ensuring every student has what they need to thrive,” stated Washtenaw ISD Superintendent Naomi Norman. “I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to voters on behalf of our schools and the students with disabilities who will continue to benefit from this renewal.”
