Chappell, Lincoln Recognized by DPI as High Impact Schools

Two Green Bay Area Public Schools were recognized as High Impact Schools by the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction for the 2024-25 school year.

Chappell and Lincoln Elementary Schools were recognized for serving a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students while having above-average achievement when compared to similarly situated schools.

"These schools demonstrate what strong teaching, supportive families and communities, and a shared commitment to all learners can achieve," State Superintendent Dr. Jill Underly said. "Their work reflects a deep investment in student learning and well-being, and I am proud to recognize their continued leadership and impact across our state."

High Impact Schools must also meet the following criteria: 

• Receive federal Title I funding

• Not be currently identified for Comprehensive, Targeted, or Additional Targeted Support and Improvement (CSI/TSI/ATSI),
• Be above the bottom 20% statewide for chronic absenteeism and achievement
