Principal’s Corner: Welcome to the 2025–2026 School Year at Whitson Elementary!
Dear Whitson Families,
Welcome—or welcome back—to Whitson Elementary! I am thrilled to begin my 13th year as principal of this amazing school. This year promises to be filled with learning, growth, fun, and lasting memories.
Our focus remains on providing engaging and rigorous academic experiences for every student. Alongside strong instruction, students can look forward to exciting opportunities such as field trips, an artist-in-residence program, music performances, assemblies, author visits, and much more. Watching students grow academically, socially, and emotionally throughout the year is one of the greatest joys of being a principal.
Whitson is a truly special place. We have incredible students, a dedicated and talented staff, and supportive families who work together to create a caring and vibrant learning community. It is an honor to serve as the principal of such a wonderful school.
I’m also excited to share that this year we welcome Principal Intern Trisha Eddy, a longtime White Salmon teacher, who is completing her principal licensure program here at Whitson. We are fortunate to have her expertise and energy as part of our leadership team this year.
If you have any questions or if I can support you in any way, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me at 509-493-1560.
Go Cubs!
