History
Muskego High School was constructed in 1956 at the corner of Woods Road and Racine Ave. Its first elected administrator, Arnold Wicklund, oversaw the school's construction. Prior to the school's construction, many Muskego children attended school in the Milwaukee School District.
In September 2003 the high school was completely remodeled, with 155,000 square feet (14,400 m2) added to the building. Facilities that were added include several wings and a performing arts center. A controversial portion of the remodel was the addition of eight 42" flat screen TVs for the cafeteria, and the incorrect placement of the supporting wall of the South Gym, which prevents the bleachers from being able to be pulled out entirely during sporting events. The campus also expanded, with approximately 40 acres (160,000 m2) of new athletic fields and green space.
Academics
Transcribed credit courses are offered, which allow students to take classes at the high school while receiving credit at Waukesha County Technical College. Students may participate in the School-To-Work program, which gives students an opportunity to earn classroom credit, gain work experience and get paid at the same time. Muskego also allows students to take Advanced Placement (AP) courses. Students can earn college credit if they pass the AP College Board exam near the end of the school year. Muskego currently has AP courses in many different subject areas, including:
Muskego High School has been a Project Lead the Way certified INNOVATION High School since 2013. The pre-engineering program includes Introduction to Engineering, Principles of Engineering, Digital Electronics and Engineering Design and Development, a senior capstone course. EDD students have won first place at the Badger State Science and Engineering Fair as well as winning the state Stokholm, Jr. Water Prize and attended the iSWEEEP fair in Houston, Texas.
