As we head into election season, a gentle reminder:
Candidate filings have not started yet for SBISD Trustee Elections – filing begins on January 19 and closes at 5pm on February 18. Please abstain from inviting a candidate or “potential” candidate to speak at your PTA meeting until all candidates have had a chance to file.
If you have one candidate come speak at a PTA function/meeting, you must invite all candidates (this goes for any election – including State Board of Education, City Council, etc). They don’t all have to show up but all MUST be invited. A PTA cannot endorse a candidate.
As always, the Council will host a candidate forum before early voting begins in April.
If you have specific questions, I am happy to help.
