Dear Parents, Students, and Staff, 

It is with great pleasure and enthusiasm that I welcome you to the second half of the new academic year at Whittier Elementary. As the principal, I am honored to lead a dedicated team of educators and staff who are committed to providing an enriching and supportive learning environment. Our focus is not only on academic excellence but also on fostering the holistic development of each student.

 At Whittier Elementary, we believe in cultivating a sense of curiosity, creativity, and critical thinking among our students. Through a combination of innovative teaching methods, extracurricular activities, and a strong sense of community, we aim to empower our students to become lifelong learners and responsible global citizens. 

I encourage open communication between parents, teachers, and students to ensure a collaborative and positive educational experience. I look forward to a year filled with growth, achievement, and memorable moments for everyone in our school community. Together, let us embark on a journey of learning, discovery, and success. 

Welcome to a school year filled with endless possibilities!
