Member School Districts
The SWSA is an organization comprised of 26 regionally local public schools joined together through a 66.0301 Cooperative Agreement.
Membership in the SWSA consists of both school district administrators and school board members. From an advocacy perspective, this makes SWSA uniquely qualified to work together with policymakers to advocate for sound public education policies.
District membership is comprised of K-8’s, Union High Schools, and K-12 school districts from a variety of geographic settings in Southeastern Wisconsin including urban, suburban, and western rural Waukesha and Walworth Counties.

- Regional advocacy efforts guided by a well-informed legislative liaison in Madison
- Serves as a conduit to bring community members to policy makers
- Collaborative advocacy opportunities and regional strength of messaging with SWSA members
- Well-developed position papers and talking points to articulate messages when advocating
