The issue of school districts having to cut budgets or ask voters to approve operational referenda is nothing new, but it’s getting some notice after the Shawano School District announced in January that $1.6 million needs to be cut from operations to balance next year’s budget.

The general election for the Menominee Tribal Legislature was held Jan. 14–15, resulting in the election of three candidates to three-year terms.

Elected were Marcus Grignon with 319 votes, Daynell Grignon with 310 and Kaycee Wayka with 260, according to the Tribal Election Commission.

The Shawano County Board of Supervisors approved a resolution Jan. 28 thanking Allison Schultz for her two decades of service to the Bonduel Public Library.

Schultz served nearly 21 years with the library, which is now a branch of the Shawano County Library system.
