Advocacy!!

Don't forget to REGISTER TO VOTE to make your voice heard in the upcoming election -click here!

And after you register, vote NO on Initiatives 2117 & 2109 in November!

At our general MIHS PTSA meeting on Friday, September 6th, our membership unanimously voted to formally adopt Washington State PTA's (WSPTA) stance to oppose both Initiative 2117 & Initiative 2109 in the upcoming election. If passed, these initiatives together would equate to an estimated $1 billion loss towards public school funding based on what they brought in last year. To learn more details about why our PTSA and WSPTA oppose these initiatives click here!
