The Chequamegon School District (CSD) offers a variety of educational options to students who reside within District attendance boundaries. The District’s primary educational pathway and instructional program involves a progression from 4-Year-Old Kindergarten through 12th grade, leading to a high school diploma.

Some of the specific educational programs offered to eligible students enrolled in and attending a District school include:

  • Early-childhood special education (for those students at least 3-years-old but not yet school age)

  • Special education for students with disabilities

  • English Language Learner programs

  • Career and Technical Education (CTE) programs

  • Individualized program and curricular modifications

  • Alternative education programs for at-risk students (students identified as being at-risk of not graduating from high school)

  • Summer learning programming

  • Charter schools

  • Virtual education program

  • Youth Apprenticeship programming

Educational options for CSD students involving part-time attendance at an educational institution other than a CSD school include:

  • The Early College Credit Program, which allows Wisconsin public and private high school students to take one or more courses at an institution of higher education for high school and/or college credit. “Institution of higher education” means an institution within the University of Wisconsin System, a tribally controlled college, or a private, nonprofit institution of higher education located in the state.

  • The Start College Now Program, which allows Wisconsin public school students who have finished 10th grade and are in good standing to take one or more courses at a state technical college.

  • Part-Time Open Enrollment, which allows a student enrolled in a public school in the high school grades to attend public school in a nonresident school district for the purpose of taking a course offered by the nonresident school district. A student may attend no more than two courses at any time in nonresident school districts.

For CSD students residing within the boundaries of the District, additional full-time educational options that are not a school or instrumentality of the District include:

  • High school students meeting certain age and other eligibility requirements may be permitted to attend a technical college or certain other programs for the purpose of completing a program leading to a high school diploma or a high school equivalency diploma.

  • Full-time Open Enrollment involving physical attendance in a public school of a nonresident district or attendance through a virtual charter school associated with a nonresident district.

  • A student with a disability who meets eligibility requirements may apply to attend an eligible, participating private school under a scholarship awarded through the state’s Special Needs Scholarship Program as established under section 115.7915 of state statutes.

  • Enrollment in a private school of the family’s choosing (at the family’s own cost, as applicable).

  • Enrollment in a home-based private educational program as provided under state law.

Educational options for children who reside in the CSD and who are enrolled in and attending a private school or home-based private educational program include:

  • The opportunity to attend CSD summer learning programming.

  • The opportunity to apply for approval to take up to two courses per semester in a CSD school subject to sufficient space, pursuant to section 118.145(4) of state statutes.

  • A student involved in a home-based private educational program may participate in CSD interscholastic athletics pursuant to section 118.113 of state statutes.
