🌟 Whittier Pride shines bright at the 17th Annual YMCA Educator of the Year Awards! 🌟

Three Whittier educators were honored for their dedication and impact: Tjitse Boringa (Culinary), Elizabeth Devenney (English), and Paul Moskevitz (Vocational Coordinator). 👏

Three Whittier students, Lila Combs, Skylar Cyr, and Lillian DesOrmeaux, were recognized as teens who embody the Y’s four core values: caring, honesty, respect, and responsibility. 💫

We’d also like to extend a special thank-you to our student readers, Sophia Jones, Karen Gomez, and Rachelis Ozorio, for helping make the night so meaningful. ❤️💛

🍂 Leave the Leaves! 🍂

Each weekend this fall, the sound of leaf blowers fills the air—but have you ever wondered what happens if you just let the leaves be? It may seem simple, but leaving the leaves does incredible things for nature!

Whittier’s Environmental Club encourages our community to “leave the leaves” to support the insects, bees, birds, and small animals that rely on leaf litter for warmth and shelter during the winter. Even raking leaves into garden beds or under trees can make a difference. 🌿

Let’s work together to protect habitats and help nature thrive! 🌎

✨ Alumni Connection: Taysha Diaz ’14, Culinary Arts ✨

From the kitchens of Whittier Tech to the courtside action with the Boston Celtics, Taysha Diaz has turned her passion into a career as a Performance Chef.

Reflecting on her journey, Taysha credits her Whittier experience for building her confidence and sparking her love for cooking:
“All of the support, encouragement, and trust from my chefs really helped to empower me. I don’t think I’d be where I am today if it weren’t for the three amazing chefs I met at Whittier.”
