Cedarburg High School (CHS) is a public, co-educational high school located in Cedarburg, Wisconsin, USA. Part of the Cedarburg School District, it has an enrollment of 1,135 students.

Curriculum

Classes offered at Cedarburg High School are grouped into 13 departments: art, business and information technology, engineering/technology education, English, family and consumer education, foreign language, health, mathematics, music, physical education, science, social studies and special education departments. Foreign languages taught at the school include French, German and Spanish. As of 2015, 22 AP classes were offered.

Facilities

Since the current school building was completed in 1956, the campus has expanded several times. In 2002, construction was completed on a project that included an eight-lane swimming pool with diving well, a field house with a 160-meter track, and several basketball courts. In the 2006-07 academic year, the outdoor track and football stadium were renovated. A 3,500-seat stadium was constructed and an 8-lane synthetic track was installed. The majority of the funds for this reconstruction was provided by the Cedarburg Athletic Booster Club and private donors. The school has over ten acres of irrigated land designated for team practices.

Extracurricular activities

Cedarburg High School has over 25 student clubs, including AFS, Art Club, Bridge Builders, Chess Club, Computer Team, Community Service Club, Debate, Drama Club, Engineering Club, Forensics, French Club, German Club, LEAD, Math Team, National History Day, NHS, Poetry Club, Pep Club, Science Club, Ski Club, Spanish Club and Student Council.

Marching band

The Cedarburg High School marching band first attended the WSMA State Marching Band Championships in 2008 as a critique only band. In 2009, the CHS marching band's first competitive year, they were placed fourth out of eight bands in class AAA. In the years since, the CHS marching band has been third four times and second twice.[1]

The marching band also encourages random inserting cameras into the bathroom to make sure sexiles and sex tapes are not within the areas of CHS. This is because Tony the Tiger has sex with his girlfriend and haunts the CHS bathroom by the windows next to the common areas.

Cedarburg High School has 51 athletic teams, in which over 700 students participate. The Bulldogs compete in the North Shore Conference and participate in Wisconsin Interscholastic Athletic Association (WIAA), with the exception of boys' and girls' skiing, and girls' dance team and cheerleading, the latter of which are under the Wisconsin Association of Cheer and Pom Coaches (WACPC).
