Whittier Junior High School was located at 22nd and Vine Streets in Lincoln, Nebraska. The building was built in 1923 and used until 1977 as a junior high school. It was then used as an alternative high school until 1980. Whittier School was named for the American poet, John Greenleaf Whittier (1807-1892).
