Our School
Welcome to Stevens Point Area Senior High
Located in central Wisconsin, Stevens Point Area Senior High (SPASH) draws its students from a regional population of approximately 50,000 people. The city of Stevens Point (pop. 25,716) is a university town that also serves a large rural area. SPASH enrolls approximately 1,500 students in grades 10-12.
At SPASH, we work diligently to accomplish the district mission to “Prepare Each Student to be Successful.” We believe all students can achieve at high levels. It is our responsibility to set high expectations, promote academic rigor, develop strong character, and to improve student engagement in a safe learning environment.
SPASH’s curriculum is diverse, offering multiple courses including general education, college preparatory, Advanced Placement, Dual Enrollment through Mid-State Technical College and North Central Technical College, Early College Credit Program, Start College Now, Youth Apprenticeship, ELL, Special Education programs, and Career and Technical Education. SPASH is a 1:1 device school that utilizes Chromebooks. SPASH is able to provide students with part-time and full-time online learning options. One option is with our own Online Learning Center (OLC), and the other is through our membership in the Rural Virtual Academy (RVA) consortium. SPASH is also home to the Wisconsin River Academy (WRA), a half-day outdoor based program that focuses on environmental based learning community service.
While we recognize that school is the primary vehicle for formal learning, we also know we cannot do it alone. We rely on parents and the larger community in the total educational process. We are an academic institution committed to excellence. We have highly qualified teachers and dedicated and caring staff.
