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.

overall my experience with south was pretty good. sports and games were always fun as well as pep rallies. if i were to change a few things i would want them to provide more help to those who are choosing to go out of state for college and not try to make them stay in state if that isn't what they want. i also would like to see more of a variety in elective options such as an interior design class or fashion design class.

During my time at South, I was alright. I didn't feel ready for college and I felt pressured to go to college because so many teachers were telling us about college and how we should go there. The sports teams were awful and always lost games. Glad I'm out of there.

I have been at south high school since 2019 and I have seen it change but in a good way. This school has a scheduling call FLEX MOD. This allowed me to be able to take more classes than most students at other high schools with block scheduling. It gave us freedom but it taught us how to manage the newfound freedom. It allowed us to obtain help easier than at other schools since there isn't always classes at every minute during the day. This allowed me to get the help I needed when I needed it. Now this school also gave me athletic opportunities too. I ended up becoming Captian of the swim team my Junoir year hoping to be captain again my senior year. This allowed me to gain new friendships and bonds that other students may not have been able to get. I never swam until Freshman year and now I am the best swimmer on the team and I hope to break the school record for the 50 freestyle. With all this I would recommend South High to other students in the Sheboygan Area.
