Editor’s note: A previous version of this story had the incorrect year for the U.S. News & World Report rankings. These rankings are from 2024.
Whitefish Bay High School has been named Wisconsin’s best high school, according to U.S. News & World Report’s 2024 rankings.
The publication analyzed about 25,000 public high schools — ultimately ranking nearly 17,660 — across the U.S. for this year’s edition of its annual rankings.
High schools were assessed on college readiness, state assessment proficiency, state assessment performance, underserved student performance, college curriculum breadth and graduation rate.
High schools are given a national rank, unlike the publication’s elementary and middle school rankings.
“These are paired with district and state-level statistics for comparative purposes, information about each school’s student body and enrollment, Title I status, and other distinguishing characteristics,” the report said.
