Advanced Placement classes are available. They include AP Literature and Composition, AP United States History, AP Biology, and AP Calculus.

Athletics

Ellsworth, Wisconsin's athletics participate in the Middle Border Conference. The Middle Border Conference consists of seven other schools in Wisconsin including Amery, Baldwin-Woodville, New Richmond, Osceola, Prescott, Somerset, and St. Croix Central. Yet their main rival has always seemingly been Prescott.

2024 Referendum

In April 2024 voters approved a referendum that would fund the update of the CTE and athletic facilities at the high school. [2] [3]

Controversies

Former EHS band director Brandon Fuhrman was placed on administrative leave in February of 2023 after an intimate relationship with a student was exposed. He was fired and sentenced to 2 years in prison, given a fine, and was ordered to register as a sex offender for the next 15 years. [4]
