Dr. Whitt was superintendent of Sylvan School District when I was a sixth grade teacher. He encouraged me to participate in leadership roles and to pursue an adninistrative credential. I have very fond memories of our discussions on the state of education and other lively topics.

I worked with Dr. Whitt at Sylvan School District, and he was an excellent school Superintendent. The schools never looked better, and he kept a close eye on everything and everyone. He got things done, and I was proud to have known him.
