School rating: -3. I think the school is catostrophic. Everytime I ask 'How is the school?' my answer is always 'They have a great band!'. Honestly no matter how great the band is the school is not so great. It's overcrowded and underfunded. Also it's not very organized. They can't control their students. This school needs atleast a 250% improvement to get a 3 star rating from me.
im a student that attends whitehaven high and the experience is great. i love everything about the school. some of the adminstrators are strict but they're strict for a good reason and that's to make sure that we (the students) get our wonderful education that whitehaven has to offer. i absolutely love the principal...he's the BEST PRINCIPAL EVER.!!! he deserves every little piece of respect that he receives.! the teachers are great too...and personally i think that whitehaven has some of the finest teaching teachers in memphis because my learning experience has been great since 9th grade and i'm in the 11th grade now. so if u wondering where to send your child for a great education send them to whitehaven high school...so that's my review of whitehaven high school... :)

i think its a great school of education
I beleive they have a way of getting the children interested in learning and to have a positive outlook on life. The children talk bout their future goals and it brings tears to my eyes just to see how excited they really are. Thank you to the staff at Whitehaven High.
The education here is great. The teachers really help there students to succeed.
I'm not a parent, but I am a former student. When i was attending whitehaven I named it 'the best in the nation'.Even though students made it hard for teachers; the teachers still maintained a professional outlook. They taught the ones who were willing to learn. And the principal was/is the best in the nation as well. He was more of a father figure to both male and female students. We never disappointed nor disrespected him. Why? Because we had that understanding where whenever we would disappoint him he would do it unto us. We respected him even as we feared him. We knew when to play and when to get serious. I miss whitehaven so much. I'll always 'see the vision through the eye of a tiger!'
Whitehaven is organized but as fars as academics and leadership, something has to change.
