The village's high school earned an overall score of 99.07. Last year, Kettle Moraine High School of Health and Sciences was named the best high school in Wisconsin.

The U.S. News & World Report ranked nearly 18,000 public high schools across the country.

U.S. News may rank schools on the same criteria, but not all schools have the same resources or goals. High schools were assessed on college readiness, college curriculum, state assessment proficiency, state assessment performance and graduation rate.
