That means I’ll have a greater variety of news to share in these twice-monthly newsletters. Election results drew the most readers Y’all probably were aware there was an election a week ago. My two best-read stories were election results stories for Manitowoc County and Sheboygan County. Check them out if you’d like to see how people in those counties voted in national, state and local elections.

We first reported last month that he was on leave from his administrative role while under investigation, but the City Council didn’t share much information. Then, Kordell was arrested three times on allegations of domestic abuse, leading him to resign from his city job.

Appleton schools plan staff cuts to balance budget

In order to balance the budget over the next four years, Appleton schools will need to reduce staff. At a school board meeting Nov. 9, Appleton school leadership said they'd need to save $400,000 over the 2026-27 school year. However, they plan to reduce staff through resignation and retirements — especially in positions that are the furthest from students, like tech services and the district office, superintendent Greg Hartjes said. He also said the districts expected to cut between 5 and 10 positions this way, combining positions and dropping duties as needed. The district also plans to examine non-classroom positions, like administrative assistants and paraprofessionals, and consider whether any can be reduced for the 2027-28 school year. Appleton schools employ roughly 2,000 staff.

And, during public comment, Ferber Elementary School's library and media specialist, Sara Wayland, also asked the board to consider positions like hers "essential student-facing educators," saying she and others in her position teach students media literacy and research skills. Even though Appleton schools passed an operational referendum in April, declining
