Wilmot Union High School

What Wilmot Union High School does

Wilmot Union High School is a public high school operating as a government entity under the Wilmot Union High School District and an elected Board of Education, serving approximately 900 students in grades 9-12 in Wilmot, Wisconsin. Founded in 1879 and headquartered at 11112 308th Avenue, the school delivers a college-preparatory and career-readiness curriculum that includes AP coursework, dual-credit programs (Gateway Technical College Start College Now, UW-Parkside PACC, UW-Whitewater PIE, and MSOE), Project Lead The Way STEM pathways in biomedical science, computer science, and engineering, and an Alternative Education Program for non-traditional learners. The academic and career planning portfolio spans 13 subject areas, complemented by a library media center holding nearly 15,000 physical books plus digital resources through Sora, Destiny Discover, EBSCO, ProQuest, and Newsela.

The school's technology stack is entirely built on standard third-party educational platforms — Skyward for student information, Otus for learning management, Xello for academic and career planning, Apptegy for website/content, GOFAN for athletic ticketing, and Hudl for live game video — with no proprietary AI or technology assets of its own. Revenue is generated primarily through local property tax levies and Wisconsin state aid (core K-12 funding), supplemented by ancillary streams including community Fitness Center memberships ($100-$250 annual tiers), summer school and camp registration fees, athletic and activity ticket sales, a student-run apparel store (The PAW, via BSN Sports), and community education/enrichment programs. Mental health and student support are delivered through school counselors, a school social worker, a school psychologist, and external partnerships with Care Solace and Pillar Health for on-site counseling.

The institution's go-to-market is community-led: district enrollment is supplemented by Wisconsin's open enrollment program for out-of-district students, and the school operates a multi-channel communications engine comprising the WUHS Today monthly newsletter, Parent Panther newsletter, and active social media presence across Facebook, X, YouTube, and Instagram. The Panther Backer Booster Club and Alumni Hall of Fame sustain ongoing community financial and cultural support. Recent strategic activity has centered on a community-approved $22.9 million capital referendum in April 2025 (with 2026 summer construction underway), two new Associate Principal hires in May-June 2026, and continued expansion of dual-credit and mental health partnerships.
