St. Robert School is one of Shorewood’s premier private Catholic schools and serves preschool through eighth-grade students. Its historic brick schoolhouse - a Milwaukee County landmark built in 1937 in the Lombardy Romanesque architectural style - is located on a charming and bustling city street just blocks away from the shore of Lake Michigan and beautiful Atwater Park.
St. Robert’s curriculum focuses on faith-based study and coursework that prepares students to become leaders in the local community and in all aspects of their lives. In addition, the school touts its “workshop model” learning, a creative and hands-on approach that encourages students to fully engage with their education while meeting the school’s high academic standards.
Beyond religious education, central areas of study include English language arts, math, science and engineering, social studies, world language study, art (including a partnership with the prestigious Milwaukee Art Museum), music and choir, physical education, and digital technology.

We have two kids at St Robert and will certainly send our 3rd there starting in 4K. Academics are great, community and school network is fantastic. For a non-Milwaukee native the school has been very welcoming and been a great experience for kids and parents.

My three children have attended St. Robert for the past four years and have thrived in the environment. The teachers are nurturing, the academics strong and the extracurriculars are enjoyable. The parent community has been particularly welcoming, engaging, and supportive and it's truly a wonderful community to belong to.

St Robert is one of the best schools I have experienced. As a former teacher in a public district, I was a bit hesitant to put my daughter in a private school. But our experience has been nothing short of wonderful. We adore the community of parents. The teachers are professional, compassionate, and...

I must take issue with the last review stating that St. Robert's requires a change in leadership. While a lot of the parents at the school are nice, others are very entitled and get upset if things are not done 'their way'. Thankfully the Administration makes decisions on the basis of what's best fo...
