Tornado Hits Fox Cities Schools | Green Bay News

A powerful tornado tore through the Fox Cities on July 27, slamming Menasha schools with devastating force—every building closed, events suspended, and damage still being assessed at Gegan Elementary and Calder Stadium. Despite the chaos, community support is pouring in, while Lamers Bus Lines remains on track for the new school year. Nearby districts like Appleton and Neenah suffered mostly power outages and minor grounds damage, with Lawrence University also hit by outages and fallen trees. Appleton’s main office shut down temporarily, urging families to call before visiting. As recovery begins, resilience and unity shine through—schools are rallying to reopen safely for students.
