Dottke Exhibition Night

Dottke PBL High School recently hosted their second Exhibition Night of the year. Exhibition Night is a powerful showcase of student projects and student-run businesses. Students choose something they have created, or are in the process of creating, for an independent or seminar project to share out to staff, peers, and guests.

Students shared projects they made like websites, podcasts, short films, video games, historical timelines, propaganda posters, TikTok channels, bee hive products, t-shirts, educational board games, earrings, stop motion videos and more!

The next Exhibition Night will be held on June 2, 2022!

Community Health Assessment Survey

The 2022 West Allis–West Milwaukee Community Health Assessment Survey is LIVE! Take the survey at surveymonkey.com/r/CHA22.

We invite anyone who lives, works, plays, study, or worships in West Allis or West Milwaukee to take the Community Health Survey.  This survey helps the Health Department, the City of West Allis, and other local organizations identify key health needs and priorities for the next five years.  By taking the survey you are using your voice to help us understand what is important to you!   

We will use the results of the survey to create a ‘Health Improvement Plan’ which will influence how programs, resources, and services are allocated in the community.
