Gov. Evers Delivers For Calumet County

Gov. Evers visited Chilton Elementary and Middle School in Calumet County as part of a statewide tour announcing his $110 million investment in Wisconsin’s kids and schools. This investment, with funding provided to every school district in the state, delivered on the governor’s promise made when he signed the 2021-23 biennial budget to provide more than $100 million in new, additional funding to Wisconsin’s schools.

Chilton schools will receive $140,000 of that money. “The money we are receiving is invaluable to meeting those diverse needs,” explained Chilton Schools Superintendent Susan Kaphingst.
