From the day a child is born the countdown begins. We have a short time to do the critically important work of preparing each child to take on the world. This is the reason the Mequon-Thiensville School District exists—to launch our children to a promising future.The Mequon-Thiensville School District (MTSD) is a high-performing public school district located in the North Shore suburbs of Milwaukee, Wisconsin. MTSD serves students in grades 4K - 12 in the City of Mequon and Village of Thiensville - communities that embrace world-class learning opportunities and rich arts, athletics and co-curricular activities. The district is comprised of some 3,700 students and approximately 400 employees across a total of six schools (Donges Bay Elementary, Oriole Lane Elementary, Wilson Elementary, Lake Shore Middle, Steffen Middle, and Homestead High).
