Escuela Whittier is a community-oriented Dual Language Magnet school located in the heart of Chicago's vibrant Pilsen neighborhood. Our mission is to provide a 21st-century innovative program that challenges students to achieve biliterate excellence. By partnering with families and the community, we offer enrichment opportunities that cultivate positive self-esteem and cross-cultural understanding.

At Whittier Dual Language Magnet School, we empower students to become bilingual and culturally-conscious citizens who are prepared to innovate and succeed. Our beloved mascot, the Monarch, perfectly symbolizes our school community's essence. Inspired by the Monarch's migratory nature, we foster a dynamic environment where students seamlessly navigate between two languages.

Situated in Pilsen, a neighborhood rich in cultural heritage and strong community bonds, our school actively engages with local organizations, businesses, and residents. This allows us to create meaningful partnerships that enrich the educational experience for our students. With a strong emphasis on a sense of belonging, collaboration, and support among students, teachers, and parents, Whittier Dual Language Magnet School prioritizes the holistic development and success of its students.

Come join us on this bilingual journey of academic excellence and cultural diversity!
