The Pinellas County Council PTAS, in cooperation with Pinellas
County Schools, is coordinating the "Meet Your Legislators" series
again this year. Through this program, we facilitate meetings with
each of the Florida State Representatives and Senators in each
district throughout the county. If you are unsure who your
Legislators are please visit
Find Your Legislator on the PCCPTA website.
These meetings are scheduled to allow PTA members, SAC members,
parents, teachers, school administrators and interested community
members the opportunity to meet the legislator for their respective
district. This is an especially opportune time to reach out and
share your comments, questions and concerns regarding the health,
safety, welfare and education of our children. Legislators must hear
from us so they can have the benefit of our opinions when making
decisions affecting our children and our schools.
One school in each legislative district is a host for the event, and
school communities throughout the district are invited to attend.
The program will include a brief presentation by the legislator and
an opportunity for questions and comments from the audience.
Following the meeting, time providing, audience members will have an
opportunity to personally meet and greet their legislator.
Our first Meet Your Legislator meeting will be
October 14 with State Senator Charlie
Justice.
We will announce meetings on this website as dates are confirmed.
Please feel free to distribute this information to your membership
and your school community. If you have any questions please contact
Linda
Kearschner,
PCCPTA Vice President of Advocacy.
