History

This area lies within the traditional homeland of the Menominee, who lived here for millennia before European arrival. After years of negotiations with the Ho-Chunk and the United States government about how to accommodate the incoming populations of Oneida, Stockbridge-Munsee, and Brothertown peoples following their removal from New York, the Menominee signed the 1836 Treaty of the Cedars and ceded this territory to the United States. Following this land cession, white settlement could begin. A post office called Suring has been in operation since 1897. The village was named in English for Julius “Joe” Suring ((1851-07-30)July 30, 1851‒(1920-08-15)August 15, 1920), a local landowner. In the Menominee language, it is known as Naeqniw-Sīpiah ‘three rivers’.

Suring was mentioned in at least one national publication due to an incident concerning to parents where the Suring Public Schools superintendent and other administrators were alleged to have conducted multiple strip searches of both boys and girls in an effort to find hidden vaping devices. After the Oconto County district attorney declined to press charges, several parents hired a civil rights attorney to explore possible litigation against the school board.
