Assistant Promotions Director

“Mr. Marty as he is known to his students, has been an incredible addition to Whittier as a long term substitute from November 2022. He has made learning fun for the 6th grade kids by showing his service uniform and his medals. As well as being there for each of the kids if they need to talk or be supported. He has kept parents up to date on everything and has done such an excellent job with no notice. Thank you Mr. Marty!!!”
