DEADLINE EXTENSION! (Please share our post with your network) Participate in creating public funding decisions – volunteer on our Bond Advisory Committee! The Bond Advisory Committee wants you to help guide critical public school facility funding and future bond initiatives this fall. We’re calling on parents, students, businesses, and community members—including homeowners without children currently attending our schools to volunteer! Bonds are essential for building projects and require a 60% plus one voter approval rating. Help us review the facts and determine if our school facilities need upgrades and should be put to a public vote. These choices directly impact the quality and safety of our school buildings and could potentially affect property taxes for thousands of Puyallup and Edgewood homeowners. Apply by August 23, 2024. Apply Now > https://bit.ly/3WhQyuf For more information about the Bond Advisory Committee, visit the web page at HTTP://www.puyallupsd.org/BAC.

Juneteenth celebrates the end of slavery in the United States. Juneteenth is recognized in the State of Washington and commemorates when the last enslaved African Americans in Texas learned in 1865 that they were free—two and a half years after President Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation, freeing enslaved people in states that had seceded from the union. Additionally, Juneteenth celebrates Black communities' rich culture, traditions, and experiences throughout history that have impacted and shaped the world that we live in today.
