Welcome to the Green Bay Area Public School District

Nestled along the shores of Lake Michigan’s Green Bay, the City of Green Bay offers the charm of a mid-sized community with the amenities of a larger metropolitan area. Known worldwide as the home of the Green Bay Packers, the city boasts a proud history, vibrant culture, and a strong sense of community. The city is home to outstanding institutions of higher education, a nationally rated amusement park (with free parking and admission), a wildlife sanctuary that rehabilitates 6,000 sick or injured wild animals each year and also hosts a public kindergarten.

Residents enjoy an affordable cost of living, excellent healthcare, diverse neighborhoods, and a welcoming environment that blends tradition with modernity.

Green Bay is also a regional hub for industry and commerce. Historically recognized as one of the nation’s leading paper production centers, the city is home to long-standing paper mills and advanced manufacturing facilities that continue to fuel the local economy. Today, Green Bay’s economic base combines this legacy with growth in logistics, healthcare, food processing, and emerging technology sectors. This diverse industrial and commercial presence supports a stable economy, provides a wide range of career opportunities for families, and reflects the city’s tradition of hard work and innovation.

Green Bay is a destination for outdoor recreation, arts, and entertainment. The Fox River waterfront features parks, trails, and a revitalized downtown with restaurants, cultural venues, and family-friendly attractions. The city is within easy reach of Door County’s scenic landscapes and Lake Michigan’s shoreline, making it ideal for those who love year-round activities from boating and fishing to hiking, cycling, and winter sports.

With a growing economy, outstanding schools and universities, and a strong commitment to community engagement, Green Bay is an exceptional place to live, work, and raise a family.
