Dear Harmony Elementary School Parents:
I hope you’ll consider running for our school council, or encourage a friend to do so.
In Kentucky, each school has a council composed of the principal, elected teachers, and elected parents who make many of the most important decisions about how their school will work. The council is a wonderful chance to learn about your school, work closely with teachers, and help make our school even more successful than it is now. The parent members of the council are elected by parents. This year we are electing a parent representative for a 2 year term, as well as a minority parent for a 1 year term. Each will receive training and will serve from July 1 to June for their terms. To help with questions you may have, I’m enclosing a fact sheet about parent members of Kentucky school councils.
Nominations are due to Carla Stone in Harmony’s school office no later than 3:30 p.m. on Wednesday, April 10, 2019. If you know someone who would be a good candidate, please do encourage that person to run.
The election will be held Tuesday, April 23rd from 7:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. in Harmony’s school office. If you will have a child enrolled at Harmony next year, you are eligible to vote in this election. (This includes parents, step-parents, and foster parents.) I urge every parent to participate in this important decision about the future of our children’s school.
Results will be announced (and a run-off election held if necessary) on Tuesday, April 23rd 2019 at 3:45 p.m. in Harmony’s school office. Please plan to be present for this important event.
Thank you for your interest in our school, and please let me know if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
Jessy Maggard
Harmony Elementary PTA President
