At Whited School, staff,

character development

Growth
toward becoming secure, confident, and well-prepared learners
- To continuously improve
Whited so that it becomes a place families truly want to send their
children
At Whited, people of diverse
backgrounds and life-styles are working together, building a school
that serves the needs of all students and is a source of pride for
everyone involved. There is an expectation that all students can and
will learn and grow personally and socially. The School Site Council
and the PTA have provided extra books and instructional materials,
teacher training funds, and scholarships and tutors for students,
supplementing the excellent district programs and curriculum, and
helping to make sure that students do meet expectations. There is
a strong feeling of family and community around school activities.
Annual events such as the Welcome Back Picnic, Hands Across the County
Day, and the Hoe-down bring dozens of families and individuals together
in support of the school. Many parents are involved as classroom volunteers
and as PTA members. Whited also has the weather station, affiliated
with KPIX weather report, that is incorporated into the curriculum
for 2nd & 5th grades.
