Site Council Elections
Help us select who sits on the AOMS school site council! The school site council is a group of teachers and parents who work with the principal to develop, review and evaluate school improvement programs and school budgets.  Over the course of a year, the council considers the goals of the school and the district and works with the principal to evaluate the school's progress toward those goals and to create a plan for improvement. Each office term is for two years or ends when a site council member no longer has children left at AOMS.

Please vote for three candidates by selecting from the choice of names given in the link below or by writing in a candidate's name; then press "Submit".  Voting will start today and run through next Wednesday, November 8th. The responsiveness may be slow initially; feel free to come back and vote later if needed. To vote now, click here.
