Brillion High School is a public secondary school located in Brillion, Wisconsin, approximately 20 miles south of Green Bay. Enrollment is for grades 9 through 12 with approximately 320 students.

Demographics[edit]

BHS is 91 percent white, six percent Hispanic, and all other races make up the remaining three percent. Approximately a quarter of Brillion students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.[2]

Academics[edit]

Brillion students have the opportunity to take Advanced Placement classes. About a quarter of students take AP classes.[3]

In 2007, local company Ariens gave BHS $1.5 million to make a larger STEM area in the school.[4]

In March 2018, the school announced a decision to change from semester scheduling to trimester scheduling for the 2018–2019 school year.[5]

Extracurriculars[edit]

BHS has worked with Special Olympics to bring a chapter of Project Unify to the school, which helps special needs students socially.[6]

Performing arts[edit]

Brillion had a competitive show choir in the 1990s;[7] the program lived on as a noncompetitive swing choir in the 2000s and early 2010s. A 600-seat theater, the Endries Performing Arts Center, is located on the BHS campus.[8]
