Summary

North High is the largest high school in the Sheboygan Area School District, serving 1,482 students in grades 9–12 on North 10th Street in Sheboygan, Wisconsin, and it currently ranks 269th of 533 high schools statewide — the 50th percentile, with 2 stars.

That middle-of-the-pack position reflects real progress. North spent the late 2010s in the bottom third of Wisconsin high schools, then improved in four straight cycles before settling at the 49th and 50th percentiles. It is the academic leader among the district's comprehensive high schools: on 2025–2026 10th-grade tests it outpaced South High by 11.3 points in ELA, 20.2 in math, 15.2 in science and 4.2 in social studies, while Central High posts proficiency between 0% and 8.57%. North's 47.47% math proficiency clears Wisconsin's 42.93% average, and its graduation rate has risen three years running to 89.9%. It achieves this with the leanest budget among the district's comprehensive high schools — $13,224 per student and a 16.3-to-1 student-teacher ratio.

North serves a majority low-income population: 51.15% qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, up from 38.13% the year before, and its results held roughly steady as that share rose sharply. Low-income students rank at the 56th percentile, above the school's overall 50th. Nearby comparisons need context — Kohler High (100% graduation) and Oostburg High (95.1%) serve far fewer low-income students. The clearest soft spot is chronic absenteeism, at 22.4% — above Wisconsin's 17.3% and higher than every surrounding suburban district.

Open Quote I find it's a wonderful place- my son often comments how much the staff know about their subject areas. They do a lot to encourage students to take initiative and show leadership. Parent communication is great. Probably the best educational experience our family has had with a school. Close Quote
