GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

My son had the privilege of attending Whittier from kindergarten through 5th grade. My daughter has gone to Whittier since kindergarten and is now in 3rd grade. Whittier is not just a school but it is a family. Students know they are loved and wanted!
