Whittier Spirit Gear
We love wearing our Wildcat spirit! The Whittier PTA coordinates Spirit Wear available for purchase on-demand for Whittier students and families to wear to community events, on spirit days that happen throughout the school year, or anytime! See our offerings and purchase on our Bonfire store: https://www.bonfire.com/store/whittier-elementary-spirit-gear/
Are you a Whittier family that also dabbles (professionally or otherwise) in design and have an idea for Spirit Gear? We’d love to hear from you! We’re hoping to feature designs from our community this year. Please contact communications@whittierptaseattle.org to learn how your designs could be made available for purchase.
