We are a group of Silver Mesa parents who want what is best for our school staff, teachers and students. We believe this can be achieved through a PTO. The district has a policy allowing parents a vote. We first must complete a Notice of Intent and petition and then we will be allowed a vote. This blog will help educate, inform and unite through this process. Keep updated on what is going on here. UPDATE: You should have received a ballot in the mail. If you didn't and want to vote, contact the district. We encourage everyone to study both organizations and vote for the group they believe best represents their ideals.

Today

Today, we had a great meeting with the superintendent (Dr. Briscoe) and Susan Edwards. They approved our notice of intent (NOI), which means
we are now in the process of gathering signatures on our petition. If you would like to sign the petition or help get signatures let me know (carrie@tuttle.org). Once we get the required number of signatures and they are approved we will have the opportunity to vote on which parent organization is best for our school. We are really excited about this process and that parents get a voice and a choice.

We are also always open for comments (good and bad), suggestions, feedback, questions, etc. There are several ways to contact us: 1. leave a comment below (I think you can even leave an anonymous comment), 2. contact us on the left side of this blog, 3. e-mail me (carrie@tuttle.org). We want to know what everyone thinks. We want to open a dialogue to find out what is working and what isn't working. We want to know what you want and what would make our school a better place.
