My experience was EXCELLENT! OF COURSE, my experience was from the schools opening and I was in 6th grade...must have been 1957 or so. Highlight: Monty Montana and his horse and rope tricks.

In my opinion, this is a ZERO STAR school with the exception of a few outstanding individuals...Ms. Karen in the office always made me and my students feel welcome, Ms. Maria in the classroom and Mr. Tyler in the classroom consistently showed my kids compassion and caring, unlike their primary teachers!

This school is amazing. The teachers are great, caring and are all about making a difference. The office staff is wonderful. This school is the only one in the entire district that offers an oral program for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing.

Whitman Elementary is a highly diverse kindergarten through sixth grade school. It has a dedicated staff and very caring teachers. It also has an outstanding music program. All students receive one hour a week instruction in grade level standards based music. Third graders get extra music instruction for learning to play recorders. Fifth and sixth grade students receive a second hour each week for instrumental music. Students also have the opportunity to participate in Villa Musica, an after-school instrumental music program for further instruction and practice. The Whitman PTA puts on Family Science and Literacy Nights, Family Movie Nights, a Spring Fiesta, and more. Our school could be made even better if we could bolster parent participation in the PTA and school functions.
