The Waukesha School District is a school district that serves the city of Waukesha and parts of the Village of Waukesha, Town of Brookfield, city of Brookfield, and city of Pewaukee in Waukesha County, Wisconsin. The district serves over 14,000 students and administers three high schools, three middle schools, 15 elementary schools, and four charter schools. It is governed by a board of nine members.

Student lunch program

In August 2021, the Waukesha School Board voted to not participate in the Seamless Summer Option, a United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) universal student lunch program that was extended for the 2021-2022 school year because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Families could still apply for the need-based National School Lunch program. This decision drew widespread criticism. The school board later reversed its decision, voting to participate in the Seamless Summer Option program.

Elementary school closing of 2022

On March 10, 2022, the district has approved and agreed to close down Whittier Elementary School and merge with Hadfield Elementary School. It was intended for the district to limit the decrease in student populations, improve accessibility for students with special needs, and to combat a $7 million budget shortfall for the 2022-2023 school year.
