Dear Voter:

Durng this past term I have continued to work diligently to improve the quality of instruction and essential programs at all of our high schools, while holding the line on spending.

Whittier Union is a dynamic school district. We have implemented a rigorous curriculum aligned to new state standards preparing our students for academic success; appointed effective instructional School Leaders; and established "safer schools" by appointing fulltime peace officers at each high school. I applaud the outstanding efforts of our students, parents, school volunteers, education foundations, teachers, staffs, and administration... Working together we have made progress.

Our school modernization & new construction projects are progressing thanks to you the voters. Whittier Union's Governing Board has advocated for and secured: $98 million (local bond) $58 million (FEMA) and a $2 million match (State bond).

I will continue to ensure fiscal responsibility and proper management of Whittier Union's finances during California's budget crisis.

I am deeply comitted to working with our government officials, businesses, and school community groups to provide the best educational opportunities for our children.

Sincerely,

Ralph S. Pacheco
