District Overview
Whitehall Elementary School District is an active, traditional public school district situated in a rural remote community at 1 West Yellowstone in Whitehall, Montana. Operating within the broader Helena region, the district maintains two school facilities dedicated to serving children from pre-kindergarten through eighth grade. During the 2024–2025 academic year, the district educates a close-knit student body of 302 children—comprising 164 boys and 138 girls—spanning early childhood programs through middle-grade preparation. The student enrollment reflects a varied local community, including 264 White, 17 Hispanic, 9 multiracial, and 7 American Indian students, alongside Asian, Black, and Pacific Islander representation.

Supported by a robust team of professionals, the district maintains an exceptional staffing model that fosters individualized instruction and small-class attention. Whitehall Elementary employs approximately 54.5 full-time equivalent teachers, complemented by 10 instructional aides and nearly 39 support staff members, creating a comprehensive workforce of over 103 full-time equivalent personnel. This low student-to-educator ratio allows the district to provide tailored academic and developmental guidance across all grade levels.
