School Overview

Whitney Elementary sits in the west side of Yakima, a part of town known for its quieter residential streets and proximity to the foothills of the Cascades. The school lands in the middle of the pack for the district, with English and Math scores that are reasonably competitive for the area, though science is a spot where families may want to supplement at home. For families drawn to Yakima's outdoor lifestyle — apple orchards, wine country, and easy access to mountain recreation — Whitney offers a neighborhood school feel that fits right into the fabric of this close-knit community.
