Reagan offers a lot of good programs for juniors and seniors. They offer Ib classes which can turn into college credits if you get a good score on the IB test. They also offer a program called M3 which allows you to earn around 15 college credits during your senior year. They also offer early college credits. They are updating the building so hopefully there will be more room.

Overall, my experience at Reagan has been average. There are some aspects of my educational experience there that have been great, and others that have been terrible. I've noticed teachers who genuinely care have made the greatest difference in my experience. Some teachers refuse to make accommodations for students who need them, which is a downside, but others do because they want you to succeed.

After being there for 4 years, I've gotten the pleasure to meet all the faculty there. They are all great people that care for their students, not only for their grades but their well-being as a whole. Academically is a relatively good school that gave me a good base for college.

now contrary to all negative reviews, This School is not self-centered around test scores. we only take pride in what we have achieved. Education quality surpasses all other Milwaukee Public Schools. Students are given options that can lead towards 30 college credits and an IB diploma

It is horrible to teach here. Other teachers do not care. Administrators only care about test score, school reputation, its ranking, and inflation of student grades.

Academically challenging, offers it's fair share of extracurriculars and sports, teaching staff is young and energetic willing to help students achieve success. The building has a very good feel when one enters, few kids walking the halls aimlessly and there is a good energy to the building. There a...
