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.

Side by Side

We received a request to share a side by side comparison chart. These charts are great. There is one item
that has changed since these charts have been made. We have been working with the district and state to clarify what type of insurance a PTO needs to have (the chart says it is optional). A PTO will be required to have exactly the same insurance coverage as a PTA. Both pay their insurance premiums through fundraised money and the cost for both is similar. There is another comparison chart you can review here. It is toward the bottom of the page.
