Last Friday, Ronald W. Reagan College Preparatory High School hosted a ribbon-cutting ceremony, recognizing the completion of a $20 million expansion project. Community members and leaders of Milwaukee Public Schools joined Reagan students and staff to celebrate this momentous occasion. 
​
The new academic and athletic spaces align with Reagan’s mission of encouraging student development and postsecondary preparation. The building’s added science wing is equipped with four science rooms and an aquaponics lab, supporting student exploration of STEM-related career paths. The addition of tennis courts, a gymnasium, a fitness center, an artificial turf field and a soccer field provide dedicated spaces for student athletes to train and compete.
