The National Merit Scholarship Competition (NMSC) recently announced the names of over 16,000 Semifinalists in the 70th annual National Merit Scholarship Program. Homestead High School is excited to announce that ten of our senior students have qualified as National Merit Semifinalists.

At its August 19 meeting, the Mequon-Thiensville School District Board of Education approved an operating referendum question that will appear on the ballot Tuesday, November 5, 2024. The measure was approved by a vote of 6-1 and marks the first proposed MTSD operating referendum since 2006.
The ballot question will ask Mequon and Thiensville residents to approve a resolution authorizing the district budget to exceed the revenue limit by a total of $26.4 million over four years for non-recurring purposes. The tax impact of an approved referendum would be an increase of $0.73 for every $1,000 of assessed property value in our community. For a home with a fair market value of $400,000 the total tax impact over four years is estimated to at $948.
The Mequon-Thiensville School District is proud to announce that the Homestead High School Latin delegation, led by longtime World Language teacher, Magistra Marianne Wallach, recently returned from the annual National Junior Classical League (NJCL) convention at the University of Tennessee in Knoxville. Held each summer, the NJCL is a chance for classics students across the nation to celebrate and compete in a multitude of diverse events to showcase the proficiency, enthusiasm, and talents of students in all that is Latin and Greek. This year, 80 students from across Wisconsin traveled to Tennessee at the end of July, with 23 of these dedicated scholars representing Homestead High School.
Mrs. Charles will officially transition into the assistant principal role on August 1 in preparation for the start of the 2024-25 school year.
