This School’s Reviews

3.0 Junior

3/29/2025

It's pretty good and I get learning. The school has definitely improved over the years and has been getting better.

4.0 Senior

5/29/2024

It was really amazing there, I think what made it better was having connections with the teachers there I felt comfortable to talk to them at all times if I had any troubles. what only sucked was the sports too focused on football and spent more money to the football program than any others. I would like to see some changed on how all the sport programs should be funded evenly than just 1 sport when we don't have a good record.

4.0 Senior

My experience at Whitewater High School was mostly positive. I was able to participate in many diverse activities. I only wish I had more academic support in transitioning from virtual learning to in-person learning during Covid-19.
