Big Foot High School (BFHS) is a comprehensive four-year public high school located in Wisconsin's South Central Walworth County in the Village of Walworth. A union high school, BFHS operates as a grade 9–12 district with students coming from four K-8 districts. BFHS is governed by a separate, elected five-member board of education. The BFHS union district serves families from the villages of Fontana, Sharon and Walworth; and the townships of Walworth, Delavan, Linn and Sharon.
BFHS is named after the Potawatomi leader Big Foot (Maumksuck) who had six toes and lived along the banks of Geneva Lake (originally known as Big Foot Lake) until his tribe was forcibly relocated by the United States government in 1836.[2]
