What's happening!


PTA Legislative Assembly is October 8th and 9th, at the Seatac Marriot Hotel.  The Legislative Issues Survey and Issues Guide are now available on the PTA website.  The Registration form should be turned in by September 25th for lower rates.  

Do you have a Reflections Chair?  There is a meeting coming up soon for all Bellevue Reflections Chairs.  Don't miss it!  Contact Meg Dunwiddie.

Check the calendar for four PTA and the Law classes.  All officers and committee chairs should attend this class at least once. Best?  Attend when taking on a new leadership role.  There is always something new to learn.

Mark your calendars for Candidate Forums for the 41st and 48th Legislative Districts, tentatively planned for September 28th and 29th.  Watch here for more information.

Be sure to check out the Council Corner.  Recently posted: The Executive Committee vs the Board of Directors.  The differences are legal and substantial.  Provided by Monica Rupert, Region 5 Director.
