Building Tomorrow's Leaders

At Edward H. White High School, we are busy building tomorrow’s leaders and proud to boast a better than 95% graduation rate! We develop our students into responsible, self-directed, articulate young people. We offer unique classroom and extracurricular experiences promoting academic excellence, personal integrity, and individual passions. Our Commanders learn to expect a lot from themselves, and they graduate with the confidence to achieve their goals and contribute fully to their communities.

Commitment to Excellence

Ed White parents love our commitment to rigorous instruction, exceptional enrichment opportunities, respectful interactions, and community service. Parents know we support each student’s vision of what lies ahead, whether that means college, career, or military service. Commander families appreciate the availability of early college and dual enrollment programs providing college degrees and credits, which can significantly lower educational costs in the future.

Endless Possibilities

From our effective, caring teachers and dynamic learning opportunities to our long list of clubs, after-school activities, and full lineup of athletic teams, our Ed White students are encouraged to challenge themselves, explore new ideas, and discover fresh interests. Our career pathway programs offer classes focused on in-demand fields such as sports business management, digital design, gaming, and logistics.
