GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Elkhorn Area High School has a lot of great opportunities for students to learn and advance far in life. You are able to take classes at our local technical college and even at our local UW Whitewater free of charge. They are lots of job shadow opportunities and internships along with many sports and clubs to join. There is something for everyone and all the counselors help out to make sure you are doing the best you could be doing.
