Hi,
An important part of the upcoming municipal elections is the selection of the School Board Trustees. School Board Trustees are our community’s advocate for public education and are the ones that ensure that our community has a voice in important education decisions. A School Board Trustee is a very important role and we would like to help our school community make as informed an election decision as possible. With that in mind, we have compiled the following information and hope that it is of use to you in the upcoming elections.
Thanks
Edna Staebler Parent Council
