i am extremely dissapointed in Whitman's staff. my child struggled with what i can only determine as a personality conflict with the teacher. We spoke many times to the teacher who was unwilling to accept any fault in the issue, we spoke to the principal who is uninterested in working with parents, rather he trys to make it the childs fault so that his staff looks good. The lack of communication between staff and parents is frustrating at best and the school is highly unorganized.

At Whitman the students are the number one goal. The school is like a large family. The staff knows every student by name. They are very motivated and encourage the students at all times. Many of the teachers have continued to teach at Whitman for years.
