Some South Milwaukee students already have a technical college degree before they get their high school diploma. Others have valuable college credits (which they got for free) on their transcript they can take to college with them. Yet others are already working in a Youth Apprenticeship, making a living wage, already in a career before they've graduated.
Middle School families are in the best position to plan out a high school course of study that sets them up for these opportunities. The High School knows what jobs are needed in the community, and is ready to start students down the path to meaningful careers. Click to learn more.
The South Milwaukee School Board is preparing to set its preliminary budget for the 2023-24 school year.

Similar budget conversations are happening all over Wisconsin because of uncertainty over State Aid. Learn more about where South Milwaukee stands and how you might help by clicking the button below.
