Good morning, Green Bay.

Melanie Bradshaw-Motiff plans to transform a long-vacant Washington Street storefront into Kindred Kitchen, a space for up to 15 food startups as part of the America the Entrepreneurial initiative.

Mayor Genrich says the move will ease start-up costs and boost local business.

Green Bay joined the America the Entrepreneurial campaign on Wednesday at the former Erbert & Gerberts location (226 N.

Washington Street) to launch Kindred Kitchen and offer a shared space for small business owners to start and sell their products.

Michael Hernandez has been named the new superintendent of the Green Bay Area Public School District and he is set to boost graduation rates and community trust by listening to staff, parents, and local leaders (focusing on diversity) as the school year approaches.

The Green Bay Area Public School District unveiled the new home for NEW School of Innovation on Wednesday at NWTC.

The renovated building, funded by the 2024 referendum, offers 6th & 12th grade students a mix of traditional and hands-on learning with college credit opportunities.

Lakeshore College and UW-Green Bay are expanding the FORWARD program to add psychology and business options starting Fall 2026.

The program gives local students in the Sheboygan area an affordable path to a four-year degree through classes offered at local campuses (on campus and online).

Green Bay educators and Latino leaders are launching a new bilingual Doty program after Langlade closed, as associate superintendent David Johns recommended starting in-district discussions to address consolidation concerns & shifting demographics.
