Alum: The best part about my experience at West De Pere school district was the culture that they have. I always loved going to all of the sporting games and all of the plays the school would put on. I loved how everyone of all grades supported eachother and it wasn’t looked at as seniors are better than freshman and so on. The worst part of my experience would be the parking situation. There was new additions last year and they did extend the parking lot, however I feel that West De Pere should have assigned parking spots with parking passes. It will get rid of the rush in the morning and at all times. I know plenty of schools that do it and it’s also a good memory for students to come back and see their parking spot. Just like a locker! What I would like to see change is the amount of times our teachers let us leave class for bathrooms etc. In my opinion, I did take advantage of leaving class to go to the bathroom and fill up my water. I feel that the school should limit that amount.... Read 28 reviews

Junior: I have been happy with my experience at the Unified School District of De Pere. Starting in the classrooms, the teachers work to make each and every student successful; and I have had a few phenomenal teachers. The teachers are passionate about what they do and highly educated in their subjects. On top of that, there are many clubs and activities, and starting a club has proven to be extremely easy as long as an adult is available to supervise. This has allowed De Pere to have recognized clubs like the National Honors Society, all the way to Thrifting Club! I think everyone in the district understands it is beginning to become crowded, and some of the facilities could be updated, but De Pere is beginning to address that. Moving on to lunch, the food is typical cafeteria food, although there are options for things like pre-made salads in the "birds-nest." I would say that De Pere's biggest downfall is our lack of diversity with the majority of our population being white.... Read 46 reviews

Senior: Amazing Teachers! Good classes that goes towards your career! Students are good there and nice. Very welcoming there. They also have college courses that you can be in like nursing assistant to get a CNA license. It is amazing and helpful for students who want to go into nursing. They also have medical terminology too that the school can let. It is really cool and I appreciate that. You even get college credits too! So you don’t need to do it while your in college. The school is great and very good learning for students. It’s very diverse and privileged.... Read 18 reviews

Alum: I really did enjoy my time at Denmark. I feel like it really promoted all sorts of opportunities for their students post graduation. Instead of pressuring students to pursue college or other paths that many in our area would not have enjoyed pursuing, they really embraced the culture of going into the workforce, military, or trades as well. In addition, however, those who did want to go to a traditional four-year college had plenty of opportunity to take college level courses and obtain credit in high school which was a great opportunity for me personally....

Sophomore: I have been a part of the Green Bay Public School District since Kindergarten, and my experience has been very positive. My favorite part about the district is the attentiveness of the educators, who foster student learning and innovation. Still, there is room for improvement. I find that a lot of capable students don't have access to certain resources because they are deemed "too difficult", even when the student is more than equipped to handle the material. On the other hand, many students are not made aware of the resources that they have to prepare for college-level material.... Read 145 reviews
