Parent Input Needed - What Issues are Important to You?

11/6/2013

0 Comments

 
Shoreline PTA Council, in partnership with PTA's across the district, is conduction a poll this November to find out what key issues are of the greatest importance to Shoreline School District Parents.

The poll is available online in the parent's spoken language by going to the link and clicking on the translation button.  The goal is to hear from at least 30% of District parents.  Your local PTA may ask for your opinion in other ways.  No matter how - Please take a moment and tell us which two issues impact your family the most.

To participate in the poll go to: http://www.shorelinepta.org/advocacy-poll.html.

Please encourage every parent you know to participate.  Post this to your FB page, send out an email.  How awesome would it be if we had 50% of our parents participate?  That is powerful information I can share with our School Board & Legislators!

Thank you!
Sarah-Ann Woodfield
