Whittier is dedicated and committed to teaching and supporting all children the importance of demonstrating kindness, compassion, empathy, love, understanding, and respect through our words and actions every day.  This is the culture we strive to create every day and we are anchored to these important values.   We are always working towards improving our ability to understand, listen, learn, and continuously grow to support each child and family in the Whittier community so they feel heard, cared for, and understood. As a staff, we embrace the diversity in our community, and we also do our best to empower our students to do the same as leaders in our school community who instill kindness, compassion and love, so that they can go into their bigger community to spread these same important values.  The Whittier staff is always here to support you, so please let us know if there is anything we can do to support you and your family during these challenging times.  We care and we are all in this together!
