College Preparatory High Schools
BROOKFIELD ACADEMY
Founded more than 60 years ago, Brookfield Academy offers a robust curriculum that prepares students to succeed at college-level coursework. With a 1:9 teacher/student ratio and average class sizes between 11 and 17, each student receives personalized attention and guidance to help them achieve their goals.
The college planning process focuses on the individual. Beginning their freshman year, students consider their interests and build a portfolio of activities, sports, fine arts, service and more. As students progress to junior and senior years, Brookfield Academy’s college counselors continue to work with each student and family to help them find and focus on colleges and universities that are truly a good fit based on a broad range of factors including academic interests, passions and ultimate career goals.
Through this process, 100% of Brookfield Academy students are accepted to four-year colleges, and many attend prestigious universities across the country. The 87 students who graduated from BA in 2023 earned 447 college acceptances at 180 different institutions and approximately $20 million in scholarship offers. Brookfield Academy 3462 N.

MARQUETTE UNIVERSITY HIGH SCHOOL
The Marquette University High School class of 2023 earned nearly $14 million in college scholarships. Of the 217 students, 10 were National Merit Scholar finalists, and graduates will be attending Stanford University, Duke University, Marquette University, Boston College and many more excellent institutions around the country. Beyond that, 28 of those students will be the first generation in their families to attend college.
The accomplishments of MUHS’ most recent class are indicative of the school’s rigorous college prep curriculum and dedication to student enrichment. The all-boys Jesuit Catholic high school cultivates a sense of community and brotherhood in its student body. Along with intellectual rigor, the school aims to develop its students’ characters and values. These efforts include MUHS’ Campus Ministry office, which organizes service opportunities for students, with 130 hours of service required before graduation. That service work culminates in the Senior Shared Life program, a two-week immersive service experience, such as volunteering at a local school or nursing home.
The school’s high standards have not gone unnoticed. In 2021, MUHS was named a U.S. Department of Education Blue Ribbon School, the only high school in Wisconsin to receive this recognition of academic excellence that year.
