Save the Date! The Spring Literacy Carnival will be on Wednesday, May 28th from 5:30-7:00 PM at the Henkle Middle School small gym. We will celebrate literacy, highlight student achievement, share ideas for increasing reading skills at home, and promote summer reading (both for our school and the public library). We’ll have treats, games, and a raffle. Come join us! This event is for all White Salmon families, but is geared toward K-6 grades.


A Fantastic Family Math & Play Night!
Thank you to everyone who joined us for an evening of fun, learning, and connection! The night was filled with exciting games, interactive math activities, and plenty of smiles. We loved seeing families learning and playing together! 🎉🧠🎲











We had a fantastic Kindergarten Round-Up, welcoming many enthusiastic incoming Whitson kindergarten students and their families! Together, they completed a fun scavenger hunt and explored the school, taking their first steps toward joining the White Salmon Valley School District community.


Third-grade students had a great time at the "Wild Weather Assembly" presented by OMSI.





Feliz 5 de mayo from Whitson!


Our amazing 1st graders took the stage for their spring music performance—and what a night it was! Full of smiles, sweet songs, and lots of heart, they truly put on a show to remember!

Third grade recently finished their swim lessons at the Hood River Pool, generously funded by the White Salmon Pool Board. Pictured are Sheriff Joel Carmody and Fiona Wilde, founder of Wilde Wind and Water, who volunteered their time to speak with students about the importance of wearing life jackets and safely enjoying our local waterways.


Fun hair/hat day at Whitson today!
