Dear Neighbor,

When I was appointed to the Whittier Union High School District Board of Trustees earlier this year, I was deeply honored by the opportunity to serve a community that means so much to me. Since day one, I've been inspired by our incredible students, dedicated teachers and staff, engaged families, and the pride that makes WUHSD such a special place.

Today, I'm excited to officially announce that I'm running for election to continue serving as your Trustee.

For more than 30 years, I've dedicated my life to public education. I've had the privilege of serving as a teacher, dean of students, principal, assistant principal, school board member, and now your Area 5 Trustee at Whittier Union High School District. Every step of that journey has reinforced one simple belief: when we invest in our students, we invest in the future of our communities.

I love WUHSD because it is a district that believes in excellence. Our schools challenge students to achieve at the highest levels while preparing them for college, careers, and life. I have seen firsthand the passion of our educators, the resilience of our students, and the unwavering support of our families. That is exactly the kind of community I want to continue serving.

I want every student to have access to outstanding educational opportunities, every employee to feel valued and supported, and every family to know their voice matters.

I'm not running because of a title, I'm running because I believe there is still important work ahead. Together, we can continue building on WUHSD's tradition of excellence, strengthen opportunities for every student, support the outstanding professionals who serve our schools, and prepare the next generation for success.

Over the coming months, I look forward to meeting with many of you, hearing your ideas, and earning your trust and support. I am excited about what we can accomplish together, and I would be honored to have your vote.

Thank you for your continued support.

Sincerely,

Armando Urteaga
Candidate for Whittier Union High School District Board of Trustees
