WHS Students See Record Cost Savings with Transcripted Credits

A Record-Breaking Year for WHS Students!

We are excited to celebrate an incredible milestone at Whitewater High School! During the 2025–2026 school year, our students saved $382,600.81 in Gateway Technical College tuition, the highest annual tuition savings WHS has ever achieved!

WHS Career and Technical Education Coordinator Mike Rick with Gateway Staff

Just look at the growth over the past four years:

2022–2023: $29,016.48
2023–2024: $206,115.22
2024–2025: $262,101.26
2025–2026: $382,600.81!

This growth represents more than dollars saved. It reflects expanded opportunities for students to earn college credit, explore career pathways, and take meaningful steps toward their futures while reducing the cost of postsecondary education.

A huge shoutout to our dedicated WHS staff who go above and beyond to create, support, and expand these opportunities for students. Your commitment to helping students succeed makes a tremendous difference!

What an amazing opportunity for our students and a fantastic example of our commitment to preparing every student for their next chapter!
