The Kettle Moraine School District is focusing on transparency and accountability. In a recent initiative called "Funding Facts," school leaders address the steps being taken to adapt to financial challenges posed by a declining student population. This installment features Carl Millard, the School Board President, and Dr. Steve Plum, the Superintendent, as they outline the district's efforts to adjust its operations to continue meeting student needs.

Dr. Plum explains that the district is undertaking scenario planning and operational adjustments to align resources more closely with current and projected student enrollment. Millard echoes the sentiments, emphasizing the district's commitment to maintaining fiscal strength and educational quality. The discussion is part of a broader effort to share information with the community regarding financial strategies.

The first video in the "Funding Facts" series provided an overview of school finances, setting the stage for ongoing discussions about financial sustainability. The district plans to release additional content addressing various aspects of maintaining Kettle Moraine's financial health.
