• Climate and Culture Committee updates board (gazettextra.com) — Antigo School District's Climate and Culture Committee shared survey results showing staff feel purposeful and supported by colleagues but want better professional development, feedback, and clearer communication from district leaders. New goals include dedicated wellbeing time on PD days, monthly staff shout-outs, and stronger advocacy, while a counselor urged the Antigo community to reduce negativity and publicly support local schools. 
• Foundation releases statement regarding aquatic center (gazettextra.com) — The Foundation of the Unified School District of Antigo is pushing back on the district's lengthy release about the Clara R. McKenna Aquatic Center, arguing some financial claims lack context.
