Middle & High School Fall Sports

The Green Bay Area Public School District has decided to move all middle and high school fall sports to the spring including football, boys soccer, cross country, girls golf, girls tennis, girls swim and dive, and boys and girls volleyball. The District’s high schools will take advantage of the WIAA's decision to provide schools an opportunity to conduct their fall sports seasons in the spring. 

The District considered the following in making its decision:

• The District’s ability to mitigate spread of COVID-19 among student athletes and coaches
• The current rate of community spread of COVID-19
• Guidance from the Department of Health and Human Services

Reimagining School

The District continues to work closely with the Department of Public Instruction, the Department of Health and Human Services and our local medical community in order to ensure that returning to school in the fall can be done as safely as possible. There are several key principles that guide our planning work for next school year:

• Keeping students and staff safe and healthy.
• Ensuring access and equity for all students.
• Maintaining continuity of learning.
• Communicating with stakeholders.
• Ensuring flexibility to meet the needs and advocate for all students, while maintaining fiscal responsibility.

Next school year will undoubtedly be different than any school year prior. Teams of administrators, teachers and staff are currently working to determine how the District can provide instruction, food service, transportation, and co-curriculars, while at the same time keeping students and staff as safe as possible. 

Currently, we are planning for three instructional models: on-site, off-site and blended learning.

Enrollment for Off-Site Learning

On August 3, the Board of Education voted to begin the 2020-21 school year in the off-site learning model. With this decision, parents/guardians no longer need to enroll their children into the off-site (virtual) model. Students will continue to be assigned to their classrooms/courses as normal. When the Board determines the District will move into the blended learning model (off-site/virtual), families will have an opportunity to choose to remain in the off-site (virtual) model.
