District

The Appleton Area School District is located in the heart of the Fox Cities and is the sixth largest school district in the state. We serve over 16,000 students in our fifteen elementary schools, four middle schools, three high schools, thirteen Charter schools, and one magnet school.

The Appleton Area School District (AASD) has a rich, 166-year history of educational excellence, coupled with a commitment to continue to improve our ability to meet the educational needs of our present and future students. The AASD strives to address the needs of all learners and provide graduating students with the skills and knowledge to successfully pursue the higher education essential for their chosen career paths.

A district the size of Appleton relies on many attributes to maintain and to improve the quality of its educational programs. A supportive community, successful business partnerships, a highly qualified staff, and a dedicated Board of Education all play an essential role in educating today’s students and tomorrow’s citizens and leaders. It is through the collaborative efforts of the community that we continue to grow as an organization and meet the needs of our students.
