Summary
Veritas High is a grades 9–12 public high school at 3025 W Oklahoma Ave in Milwaukee, WI, serving 256 students as part of the Seeds of Health Inc district. In 2025–2026, it ranked 464th of 533 Wisconsin high schools — the 13th percentile with 1 star — an improvement from 2024–2025 (403rd of 431, 6th percentile, 0 stars) but still far below its 2017–2018 position (240th of 410, 41st percentile, 2 stars). The district is ranked 425th of 432 districts in Wisconsin, the 2nd percentile with 0 stars. About 75% of students qualified for free/reduced lunch in 2024–2025, and the student-teacher ratio was 20:1.
Academically, 2025–2026 proficiency was 30.19% in English Language Arts, 24.53% in Mathematics, 15.09% in Science, and 21.05% in Social Studies. All four are below state averages, though ELA and math are above the Seeds of Health Inc district and the Milwaukee School District averages; science is above that district but below the Milwaukee School District, and social studies is below both. Compared with nearby schools, the school has higher ELA and math than Audubon Technology and Communication High, Pulaski High, Hamilton High, South Division High, and Grandview High, though it trails Reagan College Preparatory High in both subjects and Carmen High School of Science and Technology South Campus in ELA.
The school’s strongest outcomes are completion and attendance: in 2024–2025 it had a 90.6% graduation rate (district 84.2%, state 92.0%), a 1.6% dropout rate (district 2.6%, state 1.1%), and 20.2% chronic absenteeism (district 31.1%, state 17.3%). Among nearby schools, only Reagan College Preparatory High had lower chronic absenteeism, and the school’s rate was far below most others, including Pulaski High and Carmen High Southeast Campus. Its standout subgroup result is English Language Learners: 7th of 115 schools statewide, 94th percentile, 5 stars. Other groups remain lower — female students 15th percentile, male students 12th percentile, and low-income students 25th percentile, though low-income improved from 18th and 17th percentiles. Reported per-student spending was $8,407 in 2019–2020, much lower than nearby district figures from 2024–2025, but the years differ, so this is directional rather than a direct comparison.
