The
Utah PTA faces several important issues this year including:
1. Support for Public Schools - Oppose Vouchers
2. Remove the cap from the School Lund Trust Program
3. Return candidate selection for State Board of Education
back to local nomination
4. Class size
If
you are a supporter of the Children's museum, they also need your
help with the legislature. There was money in the budget to
help move the museum to the Gateway; however, it was cut out of
the last budget. Please! Please! Contact your local
legislature, house reps, senate and your governor.
These
a few websites to get you started:
www.pta.org
www.utah.gov
www.le.state.ut.us
www.co.slc.ut.us
www.granite.k12.ut.us
Please
voice your opionion to your Utah State Legislator! You can
make a difference. Every voice counts!

It
is that time of the year again (hard to believe) but we are looking
for volunteers to fill the different positions for the PTA board.
You can click on the different PTA programs and get a description
of our programs. Look and see which program you would like
to be involved with, and then call or email one of this year's officers.
We have outstanding programs with the PTA and to keep these running
- we need volunteers. Your children love having you involved
and this also lets your children know how important school is in
life. If you are interested in serving as an officer or commissioner,
we would love to have your volunteer.
Please
email or call one of the present officers.
