Arrowhead Uhs School District, WI

Original Research by School Decision on Arrowhead Uhs School District

Arrowhead UHS School District is a single-high-school district serving ninth through twelfth grade in Waukesha County, Wisconsin. The only school is Arrowhead High. The district draws students from a broad 68-square-mile area that includes the villages of Hartland, Nashotah, Chenequa, and Merton, plus parts of Delafield, Oconomowoc, Pewaukee, and Lisbon. This is an established suburban region west of Milwaukee, and the housing market reflects that: home values in the district’s ZIP codes consistently run well above both state and national benchmarks, and the area has seen a modest upward trend in listing prices over the past year. Rents also sit above typical metro-area levels, making this an expensive place to live for families who are not already settled here.

Enrollment is large for a district that covers only high school. The student body is predominantly white, with a small share of Hispanic students and even smaller shares of Asian, Black, multiracial, and Native American students. Data on economic disadvantage, special education, and English learner status were not reported in the available records, so a parent cannot gauge from this source how many students receive those supports.

On school climate, the chronic absenteeism rate falls in the top quartile among Waukesha County’s districts, meaning very few students are missing enough school to be counted as chronically absent. That is a clear strength. Per-pupil current spending sits in the upper half of the middle range among the county’s districts, indicating a resource level that is adequate but not extraordinary relative to peers.

The biggest gap in the available information is academic results. State testing data for Arrowhead High were not provided, and neither was the four-year graduation rate. Because the district serves only the high school grades, those measures should exist, but they are simply absent from this data set. A parent researching Arrowhead would want to seek out the district’s state report card or its own academic dashboards to see how students perform on the Wisconsin Forward Exam, the ACT, and other assessments, and to confirm the graduation rate.

The district brief flags a notable financial change for residents. The 2025–26 budget is the first to incorporate revenue limit adjustments passed by the Wisconsin legislature, and the proposed property tax levy is rising. For homeowners in the district’s service area, that means a direct increase in their tax bill. No district-specific referendum was found in recent years, so this is a state-driven shift rather than a local vote.

Without test scores or a graduation rate, the picture of Arrowhead is incomplete. What is clear is a district with a single high school, a large and relatively homogeneous student body, very low chronic absenteeism, and a property tax increase coming. Families who need to weigh academic rigor or postsecondary outcomes will need to go beyond this data set to make that judgment.
