Rufus King International High School

Rufus King International High is one of the most prestigious high schools in all of south eastern Wisconsin. It is commonly disrespected for it's academics due to the high concentration of African-American students who attend. King sends many of it's students off to universities other schools in the surrounding area wished their students would attend. It's time for people to wake up and realize what Rufus King is doing. No more need to be closed minded about sending your children to this school for the sole reason that it is in a bad area.

My daughter, class of 2020, loves this school. We believe she is appropriately challenged. Great Schools rating only considers AP classes and rating did not mention or consider the International Baccalaureate program.

Our son is a junior/class of 2019 and he has had an exceptional experience at King. The school offers a variety of extracurricular activities across disciplines - social, musical, fine arts, athletics, past times and more. The community has true diversity and the staff, students and families express a great deal of school spirit. Rufus King IB is an International Baccalaureate school. The students take IB courses NOT AP ones. The Great Schools AP/testing metric makes it appear that King offers no rigor, it is actually required.

The school is pretty good . The students score high on math & reading . Can't really ask for more .
