Schools

Mayville School District serves 944 students across three schools. Mayville High School enrolls just over 500, with a student to teacher ratio of about fifteen to one. The mascot is Big Red and teams are the Cardinals, competing in the Wisconsin Flyway Conference. The district has run a gifted and talented program since fourteen years before the state required one.

What the housing is like

Much of Mayville was built before World War Two, so the housing stock leans toward older homes with more architectural character and established neighborhoods.

Demand has outpaced supply. Industrial hiring in the area has grown faster than new housing. Inventory is tight, which matters to both buyers and sellers. The former downtown high school is being converted into a twenty unit apartment building called the Albrecht School Apartments, supported by a Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation award.
