Green Bay Named a 5-Star Public School Metro

The Green Bay Area Public School District was one of three districts evaluated as part of the Green Bay metropolitan area being named a 5-Star Public School Metro in the country, according to a survey ranking U.S. school districts with 3,300 students or more. Expansion Management Magazine, a monthly business publication for executives of companies that are actively looking to expand or relocate facilities within the next three years, conducted the survey.

The relationship of school to work is vital to the success of our young learners and leaders, said Dr. Gregory Maass, superintendent of the Green Bay Area Public School District. “It is the connections we make each and every day between schools and the community that will vitalize this relationship to improve the quality of life adn work in our community,” he said.

Of the 70 metropolitan areas named 5-Star Public School Metros, 11 were in Wisconsin. The magazine rated the metro areas’ schools as a way of providing a basis for executives to compare the type of workforce they are likely to encounter in various communities across the country. Using the data from its 16th annual Education Quotient ratings, Expansion Management grouped school districts into Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSAs). Public schools in those 362 MSAs were compared according to a variety of categories, including college admission test scores, graduation rates, beginning and average teacher salaries, per pupil expenditures and student-teacher ratio.
