The April 4, 2017, Referendum is the culmination of over four years of hard work and thoughtful consideration by the School District of Mayville School Board, administration, staff, and most importantly community members who volunteered as part of the Facility Study Committee. These groups worked together to identify the needs of the high school, middle school and primary school in the areas of safety and security, infrastructure, learning spaces, athletics and fine arts. The Facility Study Committee dug deep and identified the needs of the structures themselves as well as the needs of the students that learn within the structures. Please visit the Facility Studies page to learn more about this group and their work. Or, read on to learn about the needs that were identified.
