Whittier K-8 School

Whittier is a great asset to this community. The students like to stay after school, they volunteer, they ask teachers to make clubs, and they are becoming amazing young adults!

Our family entered Whittier excited to be involved with our neighborhood school but unfortunately found it to be not the right learning environment for our children.

I have had a great experience at Whittier. I was told a lot of bad things about the school but I didn't find any of them true. The principal has an open door policy, he always makes time for me and my child. The students are happy, and the staff is friendly. I am glad I choose into Whittier.

My child is at Whittier and loves it. The school is very strict and the kids respond well. There is a very small group of former, elitist parents from a now-defunct parent organization that tried to force the principal to change his approach to running the school, in spite of Whittier s success. When these parents didn t get their way, they removed their children from the school and tried to get the principal fired. Fortunately the PTA and the staff came to the support of the principal and thwarted these efforts. The handful of negative parent comments posted on this web site are from parents from this former parent group. According to Denver Public Schools suveys, Whittier is in the top two of all Northeast Denver Schools for highest parent satisfaction. For an unbiased assessment of parent satisfactin with Whittier, visit the DPS website and search for School Satisfaction Survey .
