Across the Whitehall City district, chronic absenteeism is a major concern, ranging from 22.4% at Beechwood Elementary to 51.7% at Whitehall Yearling High School in 2023-2024. Additionally, proficiency rates on state tests are generally low compared to state averages, especially in Math, and the district's graduation rate of 87.4% at Whitehall Yearling High School is below the state average. Addressing these challenges will require a comprehensive approach to improve academic outcomes, support student well-being, and promote equity across the Whitehall school district.
