The biggest question the PTSO gets is……where does my money go? Thanks to family donations, we are able to do this and so much more for the students and staff of Whitewater High School. 

Teacher Appreciation: We support teacher appreciation luncheons and breakfast bars each month, along with coffee trucks, sweet treats, prize draws, and other gestures throughout the year. 

Beautification Projects: We currently have a handful of areas around our campus we are working on improving … we will be posting before and after photos on Facebook. 

Scholarships: Thanks to family and community donations, the PTSO awarded 6 scholarships last year, totaling $6,500. **PTSO membership is required to be eligible.** 

Staff Mini Grants: The PTSO has purchased classroom needs for various reasons: repairs to our greenhouse for Science and STEM, Just Jump equipment for Health & PE, multiple online subscriptions for the English department, new and current world maps for classrooms, a new mini fridge for the nurse’s offices to hold student medications, tuners for Orchestra, and many more things. 

Teacher Gift Wrap: This is a teacher favorite! We have such a great time wrapping the teachers’ holiday gifts every December. 

Traffic Officers: We pay for traffic officers for early release days and during finals to ensure the safety of all the students and Whitewater families. 

School Supplies: Our school supply drive gets the school year off to a flying start! Every item donated by families and purchased by the PTSO provides WHS staff with the necessary tools to enrich our classrooms. 

We encourage you to become involved in the PTSO. There are so many ways you can help. PTSO is a great way to stay in touch with what’s happening here at Whitewater. If you have not already made your family donation to the PTSO, it’s not too late! You can join through our website anytime.
