The Citizens for Sequim Schools annual meeting is at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday, June 29, at the Boys & Girls Club, 400 W. Fir St. Sequim.

The group will review the past year’s activities and plan for the next fiscal year of events and activities. This meeting is the official kick-off to the fiscal year 2016-2017 which will include the annual election of board members.

Elected board members serve a one-year term and are expected to uphold the mission of the corporation as well as be willing to chair a committee. The 2016-2017 election includes the election of 12 board members.

Anyone who is a “member” of Citizens for Sequim Schools, which is defined by “anyone who supports the mission and demonstrates such support by volunteering, donating money, goods, services, or business space to the organization, or by verbally expressing support for the mission,” is invited to come listen to the nominees present their qualifications and/or interest in being elected to the board and vote for said nominees. The meeting, however, is open to the public despite membership.

Nominations will be taken from the floor during the meeting. Those wishing to run for a board position are asked to come prepared with a 2-minute presentation on qualifications/interest.

The mission of Citizens for Sequim Schools is to promote public support for the financial and material needs of the public schools of Sequim and to support the policies, programs and activities of School District 323 in particular. Said support also may include support of public office candidates, levies, bonds and initiatives.
