(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - I do not have any children going to Whitney Elementary but I know from past experience of having one of the Kindergarten teachers for my 2 boys that Mrs. Kathy Freeborn is the best Kindergarten teacher in this entire Yakima Valley! She's been teaching for a lot of years and she has a heart of gold and loves her students!

(1 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - Whitney Elementary is one of the worst schools I have ever enrolled my children in. Some of the teachers have no respect for the children or thier family members. My child was assaulted and threatened, and nothing was done about it. Ever since then, the principal and other staff members have been very unprofessional toward my kids. My children, husband, and I have had nothing but problems with the staff at that school, and plan on taking them out as soon as possible.
