Elizabeth León

     As a parent of children in the Whittier City School District, I have an urgent interest in making WCSD the best place for students.  I'm a parent who cares deeply about preserving access to the quality education that helped to give me the opportunities I have enjoyed. 

     My term on the board has been productive and efficient in accomplishing the business of the school district: to keep the budget stable, while meeting the many needs across eleven schools. I have supported Arts and technology programs across the district.     

     My vision for Whittier is one where students, parents, teachers, and all stakeholders have the same access to programs that empower them to develop their reading, writing, and mathematical abilities.  Having been a teacher since 2005, I serve as a voice for educators where decisions about education are made. I am intentional about listening to diverse ideas and opinions. I take community members’ and staff concerns very seriously, with the goal of being a problem solver.

     I am a product of Hoover Elementary, Lincoln Elementary, Dexter Middle School, and Whittier High School. It has been an honor to serve on the Whittier City School Board.

 

I respectfully ask for your vote in November.

In Service,

Elizabeth Leon
