School districts across the State of Minnesota, including LCWM Schools are facing budget reductions going into the 2026-2027 school year. Despite the previous reductions of nearly $500,000 in expenditures, LCWM continues to grapple with long-term budget impacts.Throughout the budget reduction process, our administrators have established areas where there is overspending.  Cuts have been made to classroom budgets and cuts have also been made through attrition.    Use your phone’s camera to scan the code to the right and learn more about the referendum.
