Principal's Message
Elementary Principal
Welcome!
It is with great pleasure that I welcome you to Whitman Academy Elementary Department! I am excited to be a part of this wonderful and diverse community of learners and teachers. We work each day to be clothed in compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience, just as our school-wide verse states (Colossians 3:12).
We strive to meet the needs of each child and ensure they know that they are dearly loved by God. We recognize that each child is unique and has his/her own talents, gifts, and needs, and our goal is for every child to succeed and become life-long learners.
Teachers use a variety of teaching methods to teach and challenge our students, and hands-on learning is a priority.
It is our hope that each child will care for and serve the community and the world around them, wherever they may go from here. I look forward to partnering with parents and the community to help our students grow and serve.
It’s going to be an amazing school year!
Blessings!

Welcome to Whitman Academy Secondary Department!
The combination of diverse cultures, charismatic students, and well trained teachers has created a well–rounded learning community that works to address the personal needs of each individual student at Whitman Academy.
Year after year, Whitman Academy celebrates sending young adults out into the international community equipped with godly character, ability to take up responsibility, with well-educated and inquisitive minds, and the ambition to make a difference in the world through the pursuit of excellence in every area of their lives.
Because the student body is small and resources are limited, students have multiple avenues to serve as leaders in the school as they initiate programs, lead other students and organize events. Whitman Academy counts on its capable student body to build quality into student life.
Here’s what students have to say about their school.
- It’s a community where everyone seeks helping each other.
- There’s a fair, kind atmosphere; most teachers treat students fairly and strive to make them learn.
- Each teacher not only teaches the material but also cares about the students’ personal life.
- Teachers work both to challenge students and cooperate with them as well.
- A place where newcomers are always welcomed.
Although it is small, the teachers are the best and you feel like everyone is a family
Fun and creative.
The warm environment makes it easy to adjust and make friends.
We look forward to continued excellence and service to our youth.
Warm Regards,
Mary Isaac
