Voting Open for 2018-2019 Parent Advisory Councils

DeKalb County School District parents, guardians, teachers invited to vote for 2018-2019 Principal Advisory Councils
 
STONE MOUNTAIN, GA. - The voting window for DeKalb County School District’s (DCSD) Principal Advisory Councils is now open and will remain open until Sept. 25.
Principal Advisory Councils are coalitions of parents, guardians, and teachers that serve their school communities at 114 DCSD schools. Councils act as a link between the school and the community, encouraging engagement with stakeholders, increasing transparency, monitoring progress, and participating in the selection of a school’s principal.
The voting window for 2018-2019 elections is Sept. 18-25. Electronic voting will be held from 8:00 am on Tuesday, Sept. 18th through 5:00 pm on Tuesday, Sept. 25th.
All eligible voters—parents and guardians verified through Infinite Campus as well as full-time non-supervisory teachers—will vote via an online election system. Voters will use the following steps to cast their ballots over the internet from any computer, smartphone, or other web-enabled devices:
  1. An email containing your electronic ballot will be sent to the email address on file in Infinite Campus (parents/guardians) or Outlook (teachers).
  2. Click on the link in the email to access your electronic ballot.
  3. Cast your vote. A receipt will be sent to your email address confirming that your vote was recorded.

 

All votes will be anonymous. Parents without access to computers and the internet can cast their votes at their neighborhood school(s).
DCSD will announce winners via our Principal Advisory Council website within 5 days of the close of the election window. Winners will be posted at www.dekalbschoolsga.org/school-councils.
