Volunteers Needed for Election of Student Representative to Board of Ed!

[Aaron Goode]

The second election for student representatives to the Board of Education will be Thursday, April 7 and Friday, April 8 in all New Haven Public high schools across the district. Last year, several members of City Hall, the Board of Alders and the Board of Education volunteered to monitor the elections in the schools.

Volunteers are needed for the following roles:

          Election Day observers:  

           -- Stationed in each school to ensure that the process is going smoothly.

          -- Also need extra volunteers to help with actual election process (checking in students, etc) in the larger schools like Cross & Hillhouse

         -- Between the hours of 7:30am-2:30pm, for as many or as few hours as your availability allows

         Ballot Counters:

         -- Work with Committee to count paper ballots after elections close

         -- Begins at 3:00pm on Friday, April 8 and continues until counting has finished, for the duration of the count
