Supporting undocumented students here at White Plains High School is something that we as a community take very seriously. It is our job to make all of our students feel safe and comfortable and to make clear that their post-secondary options are still wide open. Our undocumented students, so many of them high-achieving, are attending selective colleges and universities across the country and pursing careers in engineering, business, law, technology, and beyond.This page is for educators, parents, and students. It is an aggregate of resources to help begin those conversations with students and to offer tangible tools to help look for scholarships and support.
