Background: Based on the Board's action, the 2023-2024 monthly Regional Showcase item provides a thorough picture of each region, including goals and progress in attaining them. In addition, strategies that are being successfully implemented within the region and that may be replicated, will be included.

The High School Region comprises 26 schools and one speciality site, including Montessori, Immersion, International Baccalaureate, Bilingual, Career and Technical Education, Community and Alternative schools. The High School Region serves over 21,000 students in diverse settings to meet the varied needs of our students. The High School Region includes the following schools: Alliance, Audubon, Bay View, Bradley Tech, Green Tree, Groppi, Hamilton, MacDowell, Madison, Marshall, Golda Meir, Milwaukee Virtual Program, High School of the Arts, Milwaukee County Youth Education Center, School of Languages, North, Obama, Project Stay, Pulaski, Reagan, Riverside, Rufus King, South Division, Transition, Vincent, Washington, and Wisconsin Conservatory of Lifelong Learning.

This month, the High School Region features the National Academy Foundation or NAF. NAF is a national education non-profit that addresses the economic and social disparities that marginalized high school students and their communities experience. NAF works to bridge schools and businesses together to better prepare students for college, career, and future success. NAF provides rigorous, career-focused curricula that incorporate current industry standards and practices, project-based learning, and performance-based assessment for high schools across the country.
