WELCOME TO KAUKAUNA HIGH SCHOOL!

Here at the "Home of the Galloping Ghosts" our staff strives toward preparing our students to be successful on their paths toward post-secondary education, the world of work, or service all while providing a safe and supportive, yet challenging learning experience.

KHS offers many unique experiences through our trimester scheduling system which allows students to take 5 classes per trimester and earn up to 7.5 credits per school year. This model allows students to receive a more personalized education and creates even more opportunities for enhanced hands-on experiences throughout the school year.

Here at Kaukauna we have a balanced assortment of high-quality educational opportunities which also include vocational education and college level credit opportunities. We offer a wide-variety of Advanced Placement (AP) courses in addition to our articulated classes and Youth Apprenticeship (YA) program through Fox Valley Technical College (FVTC). We also offer a renowned School-to-Work Co-Op program that has already benefited over 600 students in being placed within a career upon graduation.

In addition to our educational programs we offer a large assortment of exceptionally strong co-curricular activities which help our young men and women develop into well-rounded adults. As a complement to our programs and activities our students are also afforded state of the art facilities in which to learn, practice, perform, and compete.

We are also a school that takes great pride in our community. We sincerely welcome and continuously encourage engagement with our families as well as our school community members.

When you walk through the halls of KHS, it is quite evident that people here are proud to be "Kaukauna Strong". We would be excited to have the opportunity to welcome new families into our wonderful school district, personalized atmosphere, as well as our progressive community.

Feel free to call (920-766-6113) or e-mail (baumgartnerc@kaukaunasd.org) if you have any further questions in regard to our school or if you would like to set-up a tour. I would be excited to show you around.
