WHY I CHOOSE WHITKO

"At PES, the positivity and encouragement begins at morning drop off. My appreciation goes out to all the teachers, teacher’s assistants, cafeteria staff and principal for showing love and care while our kids are away from home. They also end their day with encouraging words as they close the door at pick up. Love our small town school!"
Pierceton Elementary School Parent
"The academy has helped me have a better idea of what I want my future career to be. You get to experience and see hands-on what the agriculture field is truly about and I've gotten to do things that I never imagined I would get to do at school. Thanks to the Whitko community that made the academy possible I've developed stronger leadership skills, challenged myself more, and discovered new things I'm interested in."
Whitko Career Academy Student
"South Whitley Elementary is a great school because we have very nice teachers and they do great at teaching. I love going to South Whitley Elementary School! I love being a Bulldog!"
South Whitley Elementary School Student
"Five years ago we transferred our son to Whitko, and I have to say it was the BEST thing we could have ever done. All the students and staff made him feel very welcomed. I am truly glad we made the move for our son, we will now forever be a Wildcat family!"
Whitko Jr/Sr High School Parent
"When looking for a preschool program for my son it was important that the school offered the emotional support, lessons and play that I would offer in my own home. I found that and more with Little Cats Early Learning Center."
