Here is an update from today's Budget Vote.
Today's the day to make your voice heard! Your vote on the school budget is crucial for the future of our students and programs. To help you understand exactly what's at stake and how the budget supports essential resources, our talented student, Gavin Jeffs, has created this insightful video. Don't miss your chance to vote from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.!
