First of all let me start with the fact that I have recently graduated from Whitko High School myself. Secondly yes there is only one kind of AP class and yes it is English only, however; there are additional AP classes that can be taken online supervised in a class room or at home in order for students to progress at their own rate. Third I would like to say that any student or parent with the right mind will see that all high schools have there flaws. With all of this being said I would like to credit Whitko for being one of the schools that are making it possible for students to enter into college prepared for just about any thing.

Whitko is a horrible, horrible school. I don't even know where to start. First, the only AP class you can actually take at Whitko that ISN'T online is AP English. Otherwise, you have to take an Apex course online (by yourself, unaided). Second, the students at Whitko are horribly unmotivated. They pride themselves in their involvement with drugs and alcohol and you can ALWAYS catch at least one kid dipping while in school. Peer pressure at Whitko is intense and inescapable. Violence is not a problem, however, there are multiple teen pregnancies. Third, the teachers at Whitko (with a few exceptions) are horrible. While they're not necessarily dumb or bad teachers, they've just given up on trying to work with the students and prepare them for college or pretty much anything. The course work is very, very easy and basically set on a 5th grade skill level. Very little is expected of the students. Most teachers will go out of their way to help, if the student makes the initiative. While Whitko is survivable for a kid with a good head on their shoulders, they will be severely bored with the curriculum and grossly unprepared for college. If you're considering this school, don't.

Teacher quality at this school is abysmal . There are few teachers who actually care about teaching the students. From drugs to complete apathy (yes, I'm talking about the teachers), Whitko High School should be shut down. Administration is aware of many of the problems yet do nothing about them. Parents are not encouraged to be a part of the schoo life (I can see why with staff that is there).

Whitko High School is beginning to be recognized state wide for it's art department. The art teacher, Mr. Malicki, may look old, but he is one of us. He makes my day better!! Thanks Mr. Malicki! P.S. The athletes at Whitko rock too.

I love Whitko. I am proud to say that my children attend this school. I have two in the elementary school, one in the middle school and one in the high school. We moved here 4 years ago. The school my children went to previously did not compare to the education my children receive at Whitko. The teachers care about the kids education. The art program is great, Mr. Malicki is a wonderful teacher. The elementary teachers are excellent too. This school district is lucky to have the Sprunger's as teachers. To those amazing teachers thank you for all you've done! I would recommend Whitko schools above any other in IN!

It is small, but it very very good academically. The sat scores are among the highest in the state. You know everybody there. The teachers are excellent and help you out alot. The security is amazing. The only way you are able to get in is by pressing a button and then the camera looks at you and the front desk secretary can speak to you from the front office and ask you who you are and what your doin trying to get inot school. the Extracurricual Activities are also amazing. Wrestling won the confrence for its 7th or 8th year in a row. Football had a huge turnaround, as did basketball. The art program is amazing. students are always in the nationals it seems like. And the Agricultre progam, is the exact same. They seem to always be going to Nationals and International competitions. I beilive it is the best.

Whitko High School is a relatively small school as compared to other schools in the area. What it lacks in size, it makes up for in effort. The teachers in most cases are willing to make the extra efforts necessary to ensure that their students succeed not just in school, but also, in life. I believe the school system in general tries very hard to teach students good values, as well as, life skills. If you're looking for a safe school that offers not only scholastic leadership, but also teaches life skills, WHITKO is the place!
