GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) – On Wednesday, GBAPS leaders held a ribbon cutting ceremony for the new inclusive and ADA-compliant playground at Aldo Leopold Community School. It’s a project that’s been years in the making.
Students, families and staff were all in attendance to celebrate the occasion.
This is the third inclusive playground in the district, joining Baird Elementary and Jackson Elementary.
Officials say the playground was designed with help from Aldo Leopold students.
“Our students being a part of the design, the revision, and the completion of this project, is immensely, immensely rewarding,” said Trina Lambert, principal at Aldo Leopold Community School. “They will respect this playground, they will love this playground and they will play on it every day knowing that they were a part of it.”
This playground was one of the many projects made possible by the Green Bay community’s support of the November 2022 referendum.
“Your support matters. You can drive by this playground any time and you will now see students here, regardless of the weather, enjoying the equipment, because of the commitments you gave us with the referendum passage. So thank you so much to the community,” added GBAPS Interim Superintendent Vicki Bayer.
