    My high school is a suburb of Milwaukee, WI. It's in a predominantly White section of our city. I'm an African American male. My school has it's challenges, but I can honestly say that when we had the largest controversy of my high school years, the on again-off again production of To Kill A Mockingbird and the use of the n-word, the district stepped up. I'm the Vice President of our student organization, Youth Rising Up, (YRU). They involved the us in the decision, afterward, but we were still at the table. YRU was invited to the table to be a sounding board for decisions being made that affected us. I felt confident that in the face of adversity and challenge, my district at least attempted to hear me, albeit after the decision had been made. We were finally able to convince the district that the impact of this play was more harmful than their intent. And really...isn't what's best for ALL students what matters?

    Strong STEAM culture. My kids have excelled in this school district. They have attended all of their lives and I'm sure they will have an excellent base to go on to any college curriculum that they choose. The staff are extremely supportive and enthusiastic. My kids are excellent at academics, but not the best in any area. Sometimes they fall through the cracks a little because they do not need any special help and don't excel in any one area, but it's great to be average in an excellent school district. They love the choices of activities outside of academics.
    In shorewood everyone makes sure that you are well supported both academically and socially. When it comes to the teachers, they are so supportive and are willing to assist you in and out of school. They do not look at teaching us as a chore, but something they love to do. The amount of people one can become friends with in the student body is outstanding, the students are capable of including anyone in their circle and not think twice about it.
