WUHSD Budget Update
In her new Budget Update, Superintendent Sandra Thorstenson announces that the District is rehiring 45 teachers and counselors who were laid off in May. The rehires are the result of months of hard work and open dialogue on a District-wide level to arrive at the cost-cutting measures necessary to bring back as many certificated staff as possible.

School Choice is a tenet of Sierra Vista High School, a school of choice for students in the Whittier Union High School District. It is a school designed to respond to students who desire an alternative setting than provided by the larger, traditional high schools; who are insufficiently challenged by the regular school program; or who are likely to drop out. As a small learning community of professional educators, we work with students one-on-one to tailor a program that meets their needs and help students feel that they belong.
