News & Announcements

Hello Dottke students and families!  Welcome to the 2025-26 school year at James E. Dottke Project-Based Learning High School!  What an exciting time to be a Phoenix!  
At Dottke, we learn by doing.  We learn by taking risks.  We learn by failing.  We learn alongside one another.  We learn in ways that will benefit us in our adult lives.  And most of all, we learn that achieving our individual full potential is hard work, but attainable.

I'm looking forward to an amazing and memorable 2025-26 school year!

Construction is officially underway in the West Allis-West Milwaukee School District!

As the 2024–25 school year comes to a close, Superintendent Dr. Tarrynce Robinson reflects on a year of growth, gratitude, and shared success. From the passage of historic referendums to the development of a new strategic plan, the West Allis-West Milwaukee School District is building momentum for a strong future. Read Dr. Robinson’s end-of-year message, highlights, and what’s ahead this summer and beyond.

Join us for the 3rd Annual Back to School Bash on August 27! Enjoy live music, student performances, games, giveaways, free food, and more as we celebrate the start of the new school year together at the West Allis Farmers Market.
