The board voted July 14 to approve two cooperative instructional contracts for the 2025–26 school year with Northeast Wisconsin Technical College (NWTC) to continue auto and diesel career‑technical programs for district high‑school students.
Program details: staff said both contracts are effectively renewals and maintain a district‑only participation rule: district students receive first access to seats in the NWTC programs. If there are insufficient seats at the district’s affiliated schools, participating schools within the cooperative agree to cover admissions costs pro‑rata so students who want to enroll are not turned away for lack of funding.
Rationale and logistics: administrators said the agreements prioritize district students and that a nearby Green Bay charter school had expressed interest but had not finalized its participation. Staff told the board that participating students must meet minimum standards for course admission and that fees (including parking permits) may apply for part‑time homeschool or out‑of‑district students when permitted by statute.
Vote: motion to approve the NWTC auto and diesel program contracts carried without objection.
