Why Whittier?
🇺🇸 Honoring PFC Evan W. O’Neill 🇺🇸

Today, all Grade 9 English classes gathered at the memorial flag pole where SkillsUSA members Marco Moscardini (Class of 2027, Dental Assisting, Haverhill) and Shealeigh Sullivan (Class of 2026, CAD, Haverhill) led a tribute to Private First Class Evan William O’Neill, a 2002 Whittier Tech graduate who made the ultimate sacrifice on September 29, 2003.

PFC O’Neill is remembered as a son, a friend, a Wildcat, a soldier, and a hero. His courage, selflessness, and legacy live on through the lives he touched and the values he exemplified.

We extend our gratitude to English instructor Ms. Bragg, who coordinated today’s remembrance, and to our SkillsUSA students for leading this solemn tribute.

🎉 Yesterday was a day we’ll never forget! 🎉

When senior Trevor Comora (Amesbury) got called to the main office, he thought it was about his parking pass, but instead, he got the surprise of a lifetime: his mom, Staff Sergeant Nicole Walker, was there to greet him after nearly a year deployed in Poland with the 1060th Transportation Company. 💛❤️

Welcome home, Staff Sgt. Walker! Thank you to you and your family for your service and sacrifice! 🇺🇸 #WildcatPride #WelcomeHome #MilitaryFamily #ThankYouForYourService #WeAreWhittierTech
