[edit] History
Eisenhower opened in September of 1969 with 400 9th and 10th grade students from New Berlin West. Construction of the building wasn't complete until the spring of 1970 at which time the building was dedicated.[1]
On Thursday, April 29, 1999 approximately 2,000 students from Eisenhower High School and Eisenhower Middle School staged a walkout, protesting the New Berlin Public School Board's $1.6 million proposed budget cuts.[2] These budget cuts included eliminating elective course options such as home economics and eliminating several teaching positions. Although students skipped class for the walkout from 9:30 AM until early in the afternoon, many Eisenhower teachers supported the protest and administration did not punish students for truancy.[3]
[edit] Athletics
Eisenhower High School's athletic program has been a member of the Woodland Conference since 1997. Prior to 1997, Eisenhower was a member of the Parkland Conference from 1970-1997. The School has a cross-town rivalry with the city's other Middle/High School, New Berlin West.
The boy's basketball team won the Division 2 state championship on March 8, 2008 with a 54-41 win over Adams-Friendship High School.[4]
