We have a long-standing history of high academic achievement and consistently place near the top in Wisconsin student achievement test results. The district sets its focus on student success, both in core academic areas, as well as in the arts, business and technical education.
Waukesha is a diverse community that is proud of its heritage and strong sense of community. Although the greater Waukesha area is located only 15 miles west of Milwaukee, its own unique history is reflected in the buildings, industries and people who have made it their home. We are an area with affordable housing and expanding subdivisions, and possess a strong business base of both large and small corporations. Our community is home to a four-year college, a technical college, and a two-year university. Residents also have access to many parks, nature trails, and lakes.
