The Green Bay Area Public School (GBAPS) Board held a special board meeting and work session on May 11, 2026. The meeting included approval of staffing actions such as retirements and resignations. The work session featured public forum comments addressing personnel and community concerns, followed by updates on strategic planning focused on student attainment and industry credentials. Significant discussion centered on ongoing and upcoming capital improvement projects funded by the 2022 and 2024 referendums, including renovations and expansions at multiple schools such as Star Elementary, Dody, Chapel, Beaumont, and Lincoln. Project progress, budgeting, and site-specific details were reviewed, with emphasis on maintaining schedules and managing construction impacts. The board also discussed policy revisions to allow indigenous students to wear traditional regalia at graduation and to permit letter grades for independent study under certain conditions. No new contracts or vendor selections were reported, but the capital projects and policy updates indicate ongoing procurement and budget management activities within the district.
