Good morning, Parents and Guardians,

Thank you to everyone who participated in our Local School Governance Team (LSGT) elections! Here are the results from both our parent elections and our classified and certified staff elections.
We had a three-way tie among the parent candidates — but that worked out perfectly since we needed two parent representatives and one business partner. Congratulations to all our newest members! I am so excited about working with you in the future! Our first meeting will be held on November 19 at 3:30 p.m. Additional details will be shared by my secretary in the coming days.

We also want to extend our sincere appreciation to everyone who accepted a nomination and was willing to serve. Your commitment to our school community is truly valued.
