The experience has been bad for my grandkids. They are open to bullying with no recourse. On top of that the Principal will go out of his way to justify punishing only the non-white children. If you are going to be have a mixed or non-white child going to this school be prepared for the racism to eventually show itself. They will say the right things but it will be their actions that prove where the really stand.

This school has a small town feel which we have learned to highly value. K-4 thru 12 are all in one building but your little ones only interaction w/ the older grades will be when the older role-model students help out in your child's classroom (very nice program, my 8th grader now helps with 3rd graders and has decided he wants to be a math teacher). My boys have been in 4 other nice school systems, including AZ and CA and this is the safest school we've experienced thus far. No idea what the reviewer who said this school was dirty was talking about--what I love about WI, esp. this area is it's cleanliness. Maybe they were referring to the old building? This is a very clean, new building. As parents of G&T kids we also were disappointed by the lack of a program for them but w/ a little parent involvement your kids will get what they need. For instance, 2 of my mid-school kids walk to the high school side to take algebra & geometry. The school's met their needs. Another thing that has impressed me is the computer training they've received. Girls basketball and boys football both went to state this year, amazing for such a small school! There's band but no orchestra.
