Special PTA Meeting: School Funding and Proposition A

We have a Special Virtual PTA Meeting on School Funding and Proposition A on September 30th at 7PM. Our trustee, Dr. David Kauffman, will be our guest. Click the graphic to register and receive the Zoom link. After the meeting we'll break out into a new room as a PTA and vote on the measure. Our president will be our delegate to the ACPTA and will cast our vote. We must have a quorum of 10 members at the meeting in order to vote. Thank you for your engagement and participation on this very important issue. 

*This is a meeting with our own trustee, and the schools in his District, but it's open to all schools. If you cannot make this meeting, please consider attending another one to inform yourself, but you won't be able to vote unless you are at our meeting on September 30th.
