Southern Door County School District

Southern Door County School District, doing business as Southern Door Schools, is a U.S. local government entity providing K-12 educational services in Door County, Wisconsin. Through federal grants, Southern Door Schools provides programs and services aimed at improving academic outcomes, supporting disadvantaged students, preventing school violence, and promoting nutrition and wellness.

Southern Door Schools has received federal formula grants from the Department of Justice's STOP School Violence Program to implement teacher training and student programming focused on social-emotional learning, crisis response, and violence prevention. The district also utilizes Title I Grants to Local Education Agencies from the Department of Education to support academic achievement for disadvantaged students. Additional federal grants have allowed Southern Door Schools to operate agriculture and nutrition programs via the USDA's Farm to School Program, special education initiatives through the Department of Education's IDEA program, and afterschool programs such as 21st Century Community Learning Centers. As a subrecipient, Southern Door has participated in federal programs administered by the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction, including ESSER pandemic relief funds, teacher development grants under Title II, and Title IV community learning center funds. Across these state and federal grants, Southern Door Schools aims to foster well-rounded student development, nurture high-need learners, and cultivate safe, supportive school environments.
