Summary

Harborside Academy is a 572-student school serving grades 6–12 in Kenosha, Wisconsin, operating within the Kenosha School District, a district that ranks near the bottom of Wisconsin's list (340th of 432). The school itself sits mid-to-lower tier statewide — 309th of 533 schools (42nd percentile, 2 stars) for 2025-2026 — but its ten-year history shows a net upward drift, from the 12th percentile in 2020-2021 to 42nd in the most recent year, its strongest sustained stretch in the data.

Graduation, dropout, and attendance are where Harborside stands out locally. It posted a 100.0% graduation rate in 2024-2025 and a 0.0% dropout rate — the best graduation figure among every comparison school here, ahead of Lakeview Technology Academy (97.9%), Indian Trail High School and Academy (95.8%), Tremper High (92.7%), Reuther Central High (84.1%), and Hillcrest School (64.8%). Chronic absenteeism, at 20.9%, is 6.7 points below the district and far below most neighbors, though still 3.6 points above the state. On the Forward Exam, Harborside beat district averages in every grade and subject tested, and its rankings for several student subgroups — including low-income and male students — exceed its overall school rank.

The academic weak spot is high school math and science: ACT proficiency was 31.25% in math and 35.94% in science, both meaningfully behind state norms, and proficiency declines steadily as students move from 6th grade upward. Spending is comparatively generous at $16,003 per student, with a 13.3 student-teacher ratio that is the lowest among Kenosha's comprehensive high schools. Yet Lakeview Technology Academy outranks Harborside dramatically while spending less per student, pointing to a different enrollment model rather than a resourcing advantage. Overall, Harborside outperforms its district and most nearby schools on the outcomes parents weigh most.

What people are saying

by a student
Friday, May 3, 2013

There is a terrible discipline problem here. But possibly worse is the terrible quality of education. One example of many is its Algebra 2/Trig-Honors class. The class is still doing work from quarter two (academic courses are all year round), and they won't be touching trig at all. They also attempt to grade students character. However judging by the number of dress code violations, rampant disrespect shown for teachers, bullying, and drug use,it's apparent that the character grades are just a joke. This school may boast about a high number of students going on to college, but I'd be interested to see how many of those students drop out. Close Quote
