Superintendent Search

Posted Date: 04/06/26 (06:00 PM)


The South Whittier Elementary School District has launched a search for its next Superintendent. This process is an important opportunity to identify a leader who reflects the priorities of our students, staff, families, and community.


The Board of Education is committed to a thoughtful, clear process that centers on community input. Feedback gathered through surveys and engagement will help define the leadership qualities, experience, and priorities that matter most as we select the next Superintendent.
