West De Pere Middle School teacher wins Wisconsin Teacher of the Year
DE PERE, Wis. (WBAY) – A local teacher from West De Pere Middle School has been named one of five winners of Wisconsin’s 2025 Teacher of the Year.
Eighth-grade English language arts teacher, Bethany Counard was given a surprise ceremony during a school assembly this afternoon.
Family, students, and faculty were joined by members of the board of education to give the award.
A teacher can receive this after being nominated by the community for the Herb Kohl Educational Foundation’s “Teacher Fellowship”.
After an interviewing process, five of them are selected for this award.
Counard said she was surprised and left at a loss for words.
“The people that I work with now, have worked with in the past…teaching is such a team profession,” said Counard. “I felt overwhelmed just to hear my name.”
Officials say these five teachers will do one final interview with the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction for a chance to represent the state at the Council of Chief State School Officer’s National Teacher of the Year program in Washington DC.

(WLUK) — The IRS is giving Wisconsin residents and business owners who were affected by severe weather in April, more time to file their taxes.
These taxpayers now have until Nov. 2, 2026, to file various federal individual and business tax returns and make tax payments.
Following the disaster declaration issued by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), individuals and households that reside in Bayfield, Brown, Buffalo, Iowa, Jackson, Jefferson, Juneau, Kenosha, Kewaunee, Manitowoc, Marathon, Milwaukee, Outagamie, Racine, Rock, Sauk, Vernon, Washington, Waukesha, Waupaca, and Winnebago counties, as well as the Oneida Indian Reservation qualify for tax relief.
The declaration permits the IRS to postpone certain tax-filing and tax-payment deadlines for taxpayers who reside or have a business in the disaster area. For instance, certain deadlines falling on or after April 13, 2026, and before Nov. 2, 2026, are granted additional time to file.
Penalties on payroll and excise tax deposits due on or after April 13, 2026, and before April 28, 2026, will be abated as long as the tax deposits are made by April 28, 2026.
The Nov. 2, 2026, deadline also applies to affected quarterly payroll and certain excise tax returns normally due on April 30 and July 31, 2026.
If an affected taxpayer receives a late filing or late payment penalty notice from the IRS that has an original filing, payment or deposit due date that falls within the postponement period, the taxpayer should call the telephone number on the notice to have the IRS abate the penalty.
