Green Lake High School is a very fun and exciting environment for students and staff to be in. The principal is a very well mannered man, and is personally concerned for each of the student s well being. The students here at Green Lake High School are not just numbers, they are known personally by each teacher or staff member. The food at Green Lake High School is delicious and also prepared on site. The menus have an extraordinary range of appetizing foods to choose from. The athletic activities may be small, but the students put all of their heart into what they do and always give 100%. The student crowd for basketball games is very loud, and shows their appreciation for the game and players. They are very cooperative and have great sportsmanship, as well as all of Green Lake players. As a proud student of GLHS, bring your students here!

Green Lake is rapidly becoming one of the finest small school districts in the state of Wisconsin! The programs offered my children are tremendous and the people working in the school district are very dedicated and really care about the students' development and well being. Additionally, the extra-curricular participation opportunities are amazing for a school district of this size. The relatively small class sizes are great, and the kids that go to school in Green Lake are very nice, too. The district also offers college prep courses, and some courses for college credit. Plus, the community is very supportive of modernization and progress throughout the Green Lake school district. And the school is located only a few blocks from the most beautiful lake in the state, which is very enjoyable. We highly recommend Green Lake to anybody. My family is very glad that we decided to move to the Green Lake area.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 Wisconsin used the Wisconsin Student Assessment System (WSAS), which includes the WKCE and WAA, to test students in grades 3 through 8 and 10 in math and reading, and in grades 4, 8 and 10 in language arts, science and social studies. The WSAS is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Wisconsin. The goal is for all students to score at or above the proficient level. In private schools, only voucher program participants are tested.
