In addition to high academic achievement, GWHS students are successful in many sports and extracurricular activities. GWHS has won ten 2A championships over the last four years. Students are also involved in a variety of extra-curricular activities, including leadership, speech and debate, choir, band, Key Club, cheerleading, Academic Team, National Honor Society and community service. In Spring 2008 Whittell was identified as a Nevada Empowerment School. Empowerment status allows schools to requests waivers from district policies to better address specific needs of a particular school.
We are extremely fortunate to receive extensive support from our parents and community. The Booster Club actively supports educational, extracurricular and athletic programs. Parents and community members are active on the School Design Team (SDT). Parents are also highly involved in the Warrior Watch program at the school and the Safe and Sober Gradnite Committee. Community individuals and organizations support the school through donations of time and expertise, scholarships and grants. In August 2008, GWHS became a 7th – 12th grade campus. Parents, staff and students ensure that the educational experience at Whittell will continue to be challenging and rewarding for all of the students. Sue Shannon
