WES 2025 - 2026 Back to School Supply List
🎓✨ Full Circle Moment! ✨🎓
Today, we welcomed back our graduating seniors as they joined our 5th Grade Walk — a heartwarming tradition that celebrates the journey from elementary to graduation. 💙💛
These seniors once walked these halls as Warriors, and now they return as role models, ready to take on the world. Congratulations to the Class of 2025! Your younger selves would be so proud.
🎉 A Special Honor!
We’re incredibly proud to share that this year’s yearbook has been dedicated to Mrs. Susan Hendrix AND Mr. William Pickel — a truly deserving recognition for two special people who has made an unforgettable impact on our school community.
Whether through tireless support, boundless enthusiasm, or simply always showing up with a smile, Mrs. Hendrix and Mr. Pickel have touched the lives of so many students and staff. This dedication is a small reflection of the big difference they’ve made.
🎉🏃♂️ FIELD DAY FUN! 🏃♀️🎉
What a fantastic day filled with sunshine, smiles, and school spirit! Our students gave it their all in foot racing, parachute fun, field pong, and more.
Thank you to our amazing teachers, volunteers, and families for helping make Field Day a success!
Check out some of the best moments from Friday’s action-packed event! 📸
🎉 Big Congratulations to White Elementary School! 🎉

It takes the collaborative effort of teachers, principals, and parents working with students to achieve this level of success. We applaud our entire school community for this accomplishment.

WES Teacher of the Year 2025-2026
Leanne Pyle
*She works tirelessly day in and out for her students. She brings so much joy to not only the students she teaches, but our building as a whole.
*She works collaboratively with her team, develops relationships with her students.
*She deserves this because she constantly goes above and beyond to meet the needs of her students and support her team. She builds strong relationships with her students and makes them feel seen, loved, and encouraged to do their best! She builds a classroom where students are challenged and sets expectations that students strive to reach! She makes WES better.

We are excited to have Leanne Pyle represent White Elementary as our 2025-2026 teacher of the year!
White Elementary staff enjoyed a hydration station throughout the day yesterday sponsored by our wonder PTO. Staff dress in their workout Wednesday attire to prepare for their "staff meeting" after school, aka a very competitive game of dodgeball. Fun times were had by all! We appreciate our fun-loving staff!

Our WES Chorus finished the year with their show, "Barnyard Moosical!" It was quite the "Dooscial!" Our Warrior family enjoyed performances at school before the chorus took the show on the road.
They shared their talents at the City of White's Friendliest Mile Festival this past Saturday.
Our chorus members are thankful for this opportunity to sing for the community and enjoy the festivities!
WES got fired up for state testing with a high-energy Milestones Pep Rally! 🥳 Students were surprised with a visit from none other than Milestone Mario and Princess Peach 👸—here to power-up the excitement for testing weeks!
