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.

My experience at Oconomowoc High School has been the best experience I have ever had. In middle school I had some of the worst times of my life because I felt like I didn't belong. However, at my high school I have been able to be apart of so much. Clubs, activities, groups, classes, and much more. I have been brought together with some of my closest friends and teachers. Without my high school I wouldn't be who I am today. I have found my place in society, school, and future.

The principal of the school is very nice and cares about all of his students and staff. The college and life readiness program they offer is really great and helps. You explore the career pass that they promote. They focus on the five career pass of workforce, apprenticeship, two year degree, military, and four year degree.

Best part was the classes and academic rigor if you choose to take it. The worst part is probably the other kids as they can be immature in multiple ways. Overall Oconomowoc is a great choice if you are willing to take the steps to place yourself ahead and excel.

Instead they give out no contacts as...

Horrible experience at OHS, these teachers and councilors told me I would amount to nothing.....Who tells a student that?! Well sorry to say I’m going on my 3rd Emmy nomination so don’t be so quick to judge students that don’t fit in the boring box.

The strict semester block classes, no department heads and need for new leadership are holding this school back. The AP pass rates are very low and 33% of 2015 graduates needed remedial course work upon entering UW colleges. Teachers are working hard despite not having planning periods as part of th...
