The Right Fit
Looking for a school for your child? Consider these options.
Brookfield Academy
Brookfield Academy is more than a top-ranked school – it’s a vibrant community built on mission, excellence and the shared commitment of students, parents and teachers. On a 125-acre campus with labs, art studios, classrooms, athletic fields and playgrounds, more than 100 dedicated faculty nurture students from K3 through grade 12. With small class sizes, each child is known, challenged and inspired. The school’s mission - preparing students for college and life, educated in the skills, values and heritage of responsible, constructive, free people – sets it apart. Results follow: 100% of students are accepted into college. The 74 graduates from the Class of 2025 earned 419 acceptances and exceeded $21 million in scholarships and awards. Yet success is measured in more than academic achievement; it is also seen in the determination to grow, serve and lead. Applications are now open for the 2026-27 school year.

Archdiocese of Milwaukee Catholic Schools
The Archdiocese of Milwaukee teaches more than 27,000 students in over 100 elementary, K-12 and high schools across the metro area. Catholic schools welcome students from all walks of life, including students from low-income families and those with learning disabilities. In fact, about 80% of Archdiocese of Milwaukee Catholic schools participate in Wisconsin's Parental School Choice programs, a government-funded initiative that provides educational vouchers for low- and middle-income families who may otherwise not be able to afford a private school education.
Data from the National Assessment of Educational Progress shows that Catholic school students often score higher in reading and math than their public school peers, graduate at rates above 97%, and are more likely to attend a four-year college.
