Wisconsin Lutheran High School (WLHS or Wisco) is a secondary school located in Milwaukee, Wisconsin that was originally part of Lutheran High School (LHS), thus making it is the oldest Lutheran high school in America. Established in 1903, the WLHS half of the school was split from its Lutheran Church Missouri Synod (LCMS) brethren after arguments between the synods because LCMS wanted to form its own school. Two schools are now in existence because of LHS, WLHS and Milwaukee Lutheran High School (MLHS). It is owned and operated by various Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod (WELS) congregations.
