Background:

Milwaukee Excellence Charter School was established as a non-instrumentality charter school beginning with the 2016-2017 school year. The contract is for up to a maximum of 840 FTE pupils in grades 6 through 12 for the 2022-23 school year. Milwaukee Excellence has two campuses located at 4950 North 24th Street for grades 6 – 8 and the Happy Hill facility located at 7171 W. Brown Deer Road for grades 9 – 12.
Milwaukee Excellence’s mission is through rigorous academics and character education essential for success, to educate 6th through 12th grade students to excel within and graduate from four-year colleges and pursue the professions of their choice.
On March 25, 2023, the Board approved the termination of the lease agreement for the Happy Hill facility located at 7171 W. Brown Deer Road. Attached to this item is a copy of the correspondence from representatives of Milwaukee Excellence Charter School along with the mutually agreed upon contract amendment to reflect the location and the maximum of 600 FTE pupils in grades 6 through 12 beginning with the 2023-24 school year.
