Get Involved & Support Whittier
Spring Fling Class Art & Bucket Volunteers Still Needed!
We’re still seeking volunteers for several classrooms to help us coordinate buckets and art projects for Spring Fling. This is a super fun volunteer opportunity and a great way to connect with your classroom.
Ms. Steph Needs a Move Crew Next Week!
Got muscles and school spirit? Come help Ms. Steph clear props and set pieces out of her musical theater closet during conference week!
This is a great way to meet other Whittier parents and help support the musical!
Whittier PTA Survey
Have opinions about the PTA? Now’s your chance to share! The Whittier PTA Survey is open now through Jan. 6, and we want to hear from you!
Your feedback shapes what we fund, how we fundraise, and where we’ll focus next.
Wildcats Ice Skate
All are invited to have a great skate session with your Whittier community! Here’s how you can participate:
- Register your skater: Make a payment via Paypal for $12/skater. Please add a note the payment is for Wildcats Ice Skate. Please also include your name and number of skaters.
- Sign-up to volunteer: We need 8 volunteers to help check-in skaters quickly! You’ll still have time to observe the skate session and your kids can still skate. Learn more and sign up here >>
