Dear Parents/Guardians,
Please be advised that your child’s campus will be utilized as a polling location for Early Voting from April 20 through April 28, as well as on Election Day, May 2. Voting will take place daily from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.
During these dates, the voting area will be located in designated areas of the campus to allow community members and parents to cast their ballots. As a result, parents and visitors should expect an increase in both pedestrian traffic and vehicle traffic on the campus throughout the voting period.
The safety and security of our students and staff will remain our top priority. The campus will continue to follow all established safety procedures, and our police staff will be onsite during the school day.
We appreciate your patience and cooperation as our schools support our community by serving as voting locations. If you have any questions, please contact your child’s campus administration.
Sincerely,
Campus Administration
