GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Education is a large priority at Whitney high school. Teachers are always very supporting and on top of their teachings and grading. School spirit is very high. We have rally's every Friday and watch events created by the school.

Whitney High School was a great choice for me to attend, they offered exclusive classes and pathways into finding the interest area of a career I might want to be employed for in the future. Whitney High School offered a competitive level of sports and was balanced out by rigorous coursework and educational standards. Almost all students and staff had high school spirit and camaraderie within the community.

I loved the community built from Whitney and all of the people that I was able to meet. They have an amazing dance and leadership program, and they emphasize greatly on bringing kindness and compassion on campus.
