School Board

2024-25 School Board

The School Board of the Whitewater Unified School District welcomes you to its meetings. Your interest assists the Board in its decision-making process, reflecting the balance needed between the resources the community provides to support the education of our students. Regular School Board meetings will be held on the fourth Monday of each month with the following exceptions: December and March (third Monday) and August (second and fourth Monday). In the event that Memorial Day falls on the fourth Monday of May, the regular meeting in May will be held on the Tuesday following Memorial Day. Agendas, minutes, and policies are accessible through BoardDocs. Agendas are noticed to and minutes are published in the Whitewater Register. Written comments addressed to the Board may be mailed or delivered to the School Board Secretary at the Central Office, 419 South Elizabeth Street; e-mailed or mailed to individual Board members; and/or e-mailed to wwsb@wwusd.org, which is monitored by the School Board Secretary and forwarded to all Board members.
