Could you see Door County’s school district count shrink from five to one or two, or Kewaunee County’s go from three to one in the future? The new proposed legislation is encouraging the 421 public school districts to consolidate or, at the very least, share some of their services to drive down costs. Rep. Amanda Nedweski (R-Pleasant Prairie) told the Wisconsin Examiner that the state has dropped 53,000 students over the last decade. “Because student enrollment is the primary driver of our state’s school funding formula, districts experiencing declining enrollment receive less money in state aid,” Nedweski said. Between 2016 and 2025, Luxemburg-Casco is the only school district in Door and Kewaunee counties that gained students, with three school districts losing approximately 100 seats during the same time.
