Our Schools
At D.C. Everest, students are immersed in a STEAM learning environment that helps students develop the skills employers are looking for: critical thinking, investigation, creativity, problem-solving, determination, collaboration and communication. Our STEAM culture students as creators, innovators, makers and entrepreneurs and encourages them to make a positive impact on the world around them. Further, students drive the pace of their learning. If a student shows early mastery of skills and concepts, they concentrate on more challenging work. Students who struggle aren’t penalized for needing more time to learn — they receive instructional support until they demonstrate proficiency. And our strong partnerships with business leaders, chambers of commerce, entrepreneurs and the community provide our students with the opportunity to apply what they’ve learned and “test the waters” to see if their chosen path is a good fit.
Senior High
D.C. Everest Senior High recognizes the final years of our students’ secondary education are critical to ensuring students are successful upon graduation. It’s our role to challenge, encourage and guide them as they put the finishing touches on the academic, career and life skills they need for the 21st century.

“Our students have grown up with Fortune 500 companies in their backyard without having a feel for how influential those companies are. Business tours help them realize that they don’t have to be located in Silicon Valley or a major urban center to make a difference — and they open students’ eyes to the endless opportunities before them.” Jim Dahlgren, Business Education instructor
GROW
Our students play an active role in the community as volunteers and mentors. We also actively involve them as student mentors with younger students in the district. For example, each year fifth grade students are invited to our Innovation Center to design and build model rockets under the guidance of freshmen engineers.
Students also advocate for the establishment of a diverse range of clubs to suit their passions and interests. We are home to more than 20 extracurricular clubs ranging from the Oral History, Gaming and Advanced Books clubs, to Project Unify, Ski/Snowboard and Outdoor clubs.
A large number of our students have been cast and crew members in the Tommy Award-winning D.C. Everest Performing Arts’ musical and dramatic performances.
Middle School
At the D.C. Everest Middle School, it is our responsibility to help students transition from elementary to secondary education, provide them with robust support as they assume more responsibilities and help them navigate expanding social circles.
Our Bridge to Middle School program helps students transition to a new environment while making new friends.
LEARN
Built to replicate a village, the layout of our school is designed to help students transition to a new environment, while providing them with collaborative and independent learning spaces that help them develop skills crucial for 21st century careers: communication, collaboration, innovation, problem-solving, investigation, critical thinking and creativity.
At the heart of our school is the “market” — a large, open community space flanked by our theater, library and computer labs. “Streets” (hallways) radiate from this central space leading to our performing arts and technical education sectors, as well as our seventh grade and sixth grade wings. Within each wing, students are grouped into miniature communities — or houses — for their core academic courses, providing them with a peer group support network. To ensure students form relationships outside of their house, non-core classes are integrated across grades and houses.
STEAM* culture provides hands-on, collaborative and work-based learning opportunities
Digital Academic and Career Planning tool helps students choose courses suited to their career interests and helps them plan for post-secondary military, career and educational options
Students with disabilities receive services through our Special Education program, are placed in the least restrictive environments based on individual needs and are provided college- and career-ready Individual Educational Programs (IEPs)
Our Maker Movement focuses on 21st century skills and promotes creativity and problem solving in students. Our MakerSpace provides students with the opportunity to create, innovate and explore their interests using a combination of the latest technologies (robots, computer programming, 3D printing) and do-it-yourself tools (hardware, sewing machines, good old-fashioned glitter).
Houses help students adjust to the secondary setting — providing a smaller support community within a larger school. Each house has a set group of teachers who lead the core academic courses for that house. The house teachers meet on a weekly basis to discuss their students and adjust instruction as needed.
EXPLORE
Our partnerships with local businesses and organizations provide students with opportunities to explore their interests and career fields.
Every student participates in a real world career exploration exercise that includes resume preparation and an interview with a local professional
One student house established a community garden and native restoration project that is now managed by all students and used as an outdoor classroom
Our Interactive Community Garden Project allows students and their families to learn about gardening and nutrition while growing fresh produce in a small amount of space at home using containers we provide and the Square Foot Gardening method. Students participate in Mind Trekkers — working together with undergraduate and graduate students from Michigan Technological University to explore the wonders of science, technology, engineering and math.
GROW
Our students learn the value of good citizenship through student-led outreach and fundraising efforts for our community and beyond.One such example is our Cooking to Connect Club where students finesse their culinary talents, flex their marketing skills and make a positive impact on the community. As a student-led club, members determine what food products to produce, how to package and market them to staff and students, and select a local charity of their choice to receive the proceeds they earn from their sales.
Students have the opportunity to participate in 9 extracurricular sports and 17 clubs, developing crucial social skills while exploring their own interests. We have a diverse range of clubs — from Junior Optimists and Yearbook to Fishing Club and Student Council.
Every student has the opportunity to participate in our after school Boys and Girls Club. The club provides students with qualified, caring staff and mentors in a safe environment designed to help them learn about the importance of character, community, education and diversity.
Our school garden serves as an outdoor classroom! The fresh produce raised by our students is served in our cafeteria on a seasonal basis and is a staple at our smoothie bar.
Elementary Schools
The D.C. Everest Area School District is home to seven elementary schools, each dedicated to ensuring every student has an equal opportunity to discover and develop his or her unique talents while acquiring critical life, academic and social skills that will prepare them for the greater responsibilities and challenges of secondary education.
The state-of-the art facilities at Mountain Bay Elementary, a 2017 National Blue Ribbon School Awardee, are surrounded by expansive green spaces and the Mountain Bay Trail which are used for outdoor learning and activities.
LEARN
Every student enters the classroom with different backgrounds and experiences that influence their academic preparedness. To help students prepare for elementary education, we offer free developmental screenings for pre-K children and a forward-thinking, comprehensive and rigorous 4K program.
In our K – 5 programs, we help students discover their potential and abilities by:
- Providing hands-on learning opportunities that help them develop critical 21st century skills — the ability to communicate, collaborate, think critically and creatively, investigate, innovate, solve problems and persevere
- Allowing students to choose a flexible learning space where they learn and work best
- Personalizing learning and allowing students to choose which instructional method suits them
- Securing digital learning tools on each student iPad that can be calibrated to a student’s unique learning style and abilities
- Empowering them to choose how they demonstrate what they have learned
- Screening students to identify who would benefit from more challenging academic options, assistance or intervention programs, and behavior or mental health supports
D.C. Everest is the only district in the region to offer an accelerated and differentiated curriculum for intellectually gifted elementary school students. The Advanced Learner/Challenge Magnet Program is housed at Riverside Elementary.
Odyssey Elementary School is a multi-aged community emphasizing competency and project-based learning.
EXPLORE
Our elementary schools encourage students to explore interests beyond the classroom by providing them with a variety of extracurricular enrichment opportunities that utilize critical, imaginative and problem-solving skills. Each school offers a unique collection of student clubs that provide students with the chance to explore and share their independent interests — ukulele, gaming, chess, LEGO engineering, Rubik’s® Cube, writing, math, babysitting, books and more.
We help students share their interests with their families and community members by hosting events that bring people together — whether it’s exploring math and celebrating our diverse cultures or competing in engineering challenges.
Weston Elementary’s student-maintained Meditation Garden serves as a science classroom and as a quiet space to teach students social-emotional strategies that can help them stay focused, reduce stress and anxiety, and build self confidence.
As the "school on the hill," Rothschild Elementary’s school forest provides students with expansive views of the community, walking trails and a unique outdoor classroom to study sustainability and the environment.
Evergreen Elementary’s Maker Space and Multimedia Lab offers students opportunities for creative, hands-on problem solving and a real-life news studio.
GROW
We also encourage students to build interpersonal and leadership skills by playing an active role in our community. Our elementary students have taken the lead on a wide variety of service projects including those that help elderly members of our community, honor the dedication of others, commemorate local history or assist families in need.
Our STEAM learning environment treats students as creators, innovators, makers and entrepreneurs and encourages them to make a positive impact on the world around them.
Hatley Elementary is a 2021 National Blue Ribbon School with a school and community garden that plays an important role in hands-on learning. It’s maintained by students and staff, used to demonstrate lessons in math, reading, science and social studies, and its fresh produce is often added to the daily lunch menu.
By creating a supportive and challenging environment that allows students to learn, explore and grow, we can help them discover their abilities and develop the skills to make the most of their potential.

IDEA School
The D.C. Everest Area School District provides students in grades 6 – 12 with a unique educational opportunity to study in a student-directed, project-based learning environment at the D.C. Everest Idea School.
The D.C. Everest Idea School has earned a “Significantly Exceeds Expectation” rating from the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction. LEARN
At D.C. Everest Idea School, our students learn through a combination of self-selected and teacher-led in-depth study. Designed around a project-based instructional model, students are tasked with generating their own research under the guidance of their instructor and advisor. Students are challenged to develop their understanding of self-selected topics while developing crucial 21st century skills such as communication, problem solving, collaboration and creativity.
Four full-time instructors work with a maximum of 72 students, providing students exceptional access to one-on-one and small-group instruction.
We significantly outpace other Wisconsin schools in student achievement and on-track postsecondary readiness and scored higher in English Language Arts and Mathematics achievement than the state average.
EXPLORE
This non-traditional instructional model provides our students with the opportunity to work at their own pace and the flexibility to conduct in-depth studies of subjects they are interested in. Establishing relationships with subject-matter experts (mentors) is an important part of this model.
Our close-knit community has established strong partnerships with local business and organizational leaders who routinely share their expertise with students through on-site visits and interactive field trips.
While students have the opportunity to explore their interests through their self-directed projects, they also are tasked with sharing their projects with the student body and community at large. Throughout the academic year, we host Project Palooza events wherein students showcase their projects and take questions from the greater community.
GROW
Students develop communication, leadership, collaborative and social skills through a variety of extracurricular options and by taking an active role in our community. Community service is an important component of students' education at Idea. Every year, students demonstrate good citizenship by volunteering with local service organizations or by performing individual community service. In addition, student’s individual projects often incorporate a community service component.
The Idea School is designed for students who thrive in a project-based learning environment, are curious, independent, self-motivated, innovative, passionate and prefer a close-knit instructional setting.
Our students are empowered. They direct their own learning — leading to endless possibilities.
4K Program
Our 4K program is dedicated to providing high quality, developmentally appropriate learning experiences to all four-year-old children. In partnership with early childhood professionals, our 4K program provides a safe and nurturing environment in which children can first explore their interests and develop social and emotional skills, critical thinking, creative and academic skills to help them become life-long learners.
LEARN
As a collaborative community-based 4 K program, a certified early childhood educator implements The Creative Curriculum® for Preschool to ensure consistent learning experiences across the program at each of our partner sites. Instruction is concentrated on:
- Literacy
- Mathematics
- Science
- Social studies
- Language development
- Social-emotional development
- Cognitive development
- Physical development
- Arts
- English language acquisition
D.C. Everest offers free developmental screenings for pre-K children to assess their speech/language development, fine and large motor skills, vision/hearing and overall learning readiness.
We work with our 4K partners to provide appropriate class size and ratios to ensure students receive optimal time with their teachers.
EXPLORE
We provide enrichment opportunities that help students explore their interests — and learn more about our community — while building critical personal, social, leadership, emotional and academic skills. Classrooms embark on field trips to the school forest, view live performances at the Grand Theater, travel to a local pumpkin patch and interact with community helpers who visit our classroom.
The D.C. Everest 4K program is offered at locations throughout the District. Busing is offered for the morning classes.
GROW
Family involvement is a critical step toward each child’s success in school, thus we provide ample opportunities for families to participate in the 4K program. Throughout the school year, we host several family events, which touch on many areas of learning, where children and their families can participate in activities together. We also encourage family members to serve as classroom helpers and volunteers.
Orientation sessions provide parents and children with the opportunity to visit their classroom and meet their teacher.
