"South Whitley Elementary is a good school because everyone here is very kind and generous. A lot of students make friends fast and you can too. All the teachers here will help you in tough times and help you if you're stuck on something. I was scared to be the new kid but two days after being at South Whitley Elementary I had a friend.That's why I think South Whitley Elementary is a great school."

"We are so lucky that all three of our boys attend SWES. We have witnessed excellent academic growth because of caring teachers and staff that treat each child as an individual, and work to meet the needs of learners at all levels. Citizenship skills are also a focal point through monthly “lifelines” that reinforce positive values and behaviors, and these life lessons transcend way beyond elementary school. We are so grateful to everyone at SWES for making school a place our kids are excited to go every day!"

"South Whitley Elementary School is amazing because the teachers are nice and on tests they help us. We get extra recess if we are good. The teachers do a great job teaching and helping us learn. They let us do extra fun stuff. I think South Whitley School would be a great school for you!"

“I’ve been a teacher at South Whitley Elementary School for thirty years and it has been an enjoyable experience. I believe every day is a new opportunity to teach and learn. One goal at our school is to prepare students to be successful during their school years as well as being life-long learners. It’s a safe, nurturing, and caring school with a staff that is willing to adjust to children’s needs for growth. I’m proud to be a part of SWES as we are committed to helping students be successful.”

"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!"

"I like SWES because the teachers take out time and dedication to teach us. In math my teacher helps us with each and every problem and takes time to explain. When I walk past the classrooms I hear and see teachers explain to the kids in their classes. Another reason I like SWES is because Mr. Gawthorp keeps our school clean. He does so much for our school. He does more than clean; he has to make sure he's got all the right chemicals. I like how teachers use differentiation so that kids like me can read at their level. I like how SWES has a book room so you can read at your level. I think it's a nice way to get the books so you can read them more easily."
