"Taxation Without Representation"


East Whittier Middle School
14535 E. Whittier Blvd, Whittier, CA 90605
(562) 907-5900

Parents, Students, and Staff
We are all aware of the current budget crisis facing California.  Recently, funding for education has been drastically reduced due to shortfalls in state revenue.  As a result, monies that ordinarily would be granted to East Whittier Middle School will not be forthcoming. The school faces severe financial problems, and the administration has been forced to consider alternative funding sources.

Therefore, a new policy is in immediate effect. Each student in social studies classes will be required to pay for all photocopied materials. The fee will be 10 cents per page. There will be no exceptions. Any student who does not pay the 10-cent fee will receive a zero for the assignment. While this may seem a burden, it is absolutely necessary. We must all work together to solve this temporary financial  
problem.

A sincere thanks for your efforts and patience,
The Administration of East Whittier Middle School
