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.

I have attended Sheboygan South High School for all 4 academic years. The school is average in their academic departments, as the teachers are engaging and friendly. It is very easy to make friends and navigate the school. There are many opportunities to enhance your college readiness and be involved in the school's culture.

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.
