Serving Trempealeau County

School Board

The Galesville-Ettrick-Trempealeau district and the board that sets its budget, its policies and its calendar — meeting by meeting.

School board

270 children, 140 seats: the G-E-T referendum reaches the Aug. 11 ballot

The facilities question goes to voters on the same ballot as the sheriff’s primary. At its July 13 meeting the board seated Cameron Cantlon, opened the policy overhaul 2025 Wisconsin Act 89 requires by Sept. 1, and heard the referendum’s clearest argument turn up in a Galesville Elementary lunchroom report.

One story here so far — the desk files as the meetings happen. In the meantime there is more county government in County News and County Politics.
