​Homestead High School Recent Grants


The Foundation aims to grant funds to the elementary, middle, and high school levels commensurate with the number of students at each level. This article discusses the recent donations at the high school level only. 

​“College Ready – College Bound!” exclaim the headlines on a new set of posters hanging near the Homestead High School Counseling Office. The posters detail recent HHS graduates’ post high school plans. Because approximately 90% of Homestead students are college-bound, college preparatory classes are strongly emphasized. Regardless of post high school academic plans, students are better prepared for life thanks to a community that embraces world-class learning opportunities. 

“We strive for all of our students to possess a broad range of academic and interpersonal skills when they graduate from high school. Wherever life’s path will take our students, we want them to be empowered and equipped to succeed and to make a positive difference in the world,” said Homestead’s former Principal, Brett Bowers. 

Thanks to generous donations, the Mequon-Thiensville Education Foundation has made impactful investments in HHS academic excellence. During the past few years, the Foundation has given grants to help fund curriculum enhancement and start-up costs; technology resources; personnel professional development; and needed improvements at Homestead High School including the following:
