Whitnall School District Offices

After seeing a lot of High Schools and attending this one, I have to give some props to the way the…read moreschool runs. District is slightly deaf to the HS and students although their offices are IN the HS... but they lock the doors to keep students out, nice job guys... They spend a lot of tax payer money to keep this thing squeaky clean with the renovation and the athletic facilities are on par and above what most schools budget. With two gyms, massive field property owned by the school, indoor pool, track, stands, stadium seating, full track field event structure, its a good school. The school has a strong academic staff with well trained personnel and devoted teachers that will be there long term, they are paid extremely well as far as the public school sector pricing goes compared to city of Milwaukee (MPS) masses that employ most of the teaching staff in the area. Your child will be challenged both academically and socially. Almost ever single teacher will interact with parents if they take the first step. There are issues brewing as Greenfield transitions the population and they see a more diverse student body. The place is layered with security and police, like most modern schools now require, and there is a fair handle on student related crime. They have also addressed the staff and have adequately fired several individuals for misconduct involving students, I would like to dock the school a star for this, but they have zero tolerance and I guarantee you every HS has an issue, but gag orders usually keep these things tied up in litigation. Ask around... I would like to note one major flaw that almost took this down to 3 stars, career and counseling program at Whitnall is weak, extremely weak. They do not interact and prepare students for college like I have seen at other schools. The recruitment numbers are based on entrance to college, not preparation. I have witnessed a fair share of failure of the lives of whitnall's graduating classes due to their ill prepared college life transition. Many of the students drop out and work in the area, it is sad. I went for advice pre-college and really got no substantial information. They need a pre-college system for acclimation and take the job more seriously. Love hate relationship with the alma mater. There is a hard headed management aspect to the school but overall you have way more pluses than minuses here, I'm just dishing on the bad because the good is obvious if you walk through the halls.

Athletics are poor but the academics are best in the city of Greenfield.read more

Nathan Hale was my high school. I always enjoyed my teachers here, though I have no clue as to how…read moreit might be today. The school offers a lot of different programs. I really liked that the school had a huge swimming pool and diving pool as well. They also have a summer program to teach young kids how to swim in the summer. If you love swimming , this school has a great program for swimmers. They have a good cross country team (Coach Kurt, who was the gym teacher at walker elementary) and when I was there in the 90's are basket ball team was great, who knows today? The wood shop class was a lot of fun here. I still have the end table that I made from a few pieces of oak. I wish I was able to complete my table that we were finishing, but I had to move. A few of my class mates and the kids I grew up with who attended here ended up going to Harvard and Yale. It's a good school. My only regret is that I wish I had applied myself better when I attended. I give the school five stars, as I feel the school did the best that they could, at least at that time. The teachers didn't give up and my history teacher who on the first day of class I thought was going to be the meanest lady I ever met, turned out to be the nicest and sweetest. That was a life lesson. Those who attended here during 94-98 probably without a doubt had the most fun here. Athough this has to do with politics, the school lunch program seriously needs to be changed. The food served was terrible. Our lunches consisted of French fries, Pizza, Burgers and fried tatter totters, and we wonder why childhood obesity is now becoming the norm. Of course, who could forget the vending machines full of sodas, chips and cookies.
