The RMAE Board of Directors is convening a 3-person Election
Subcommittee – consisting of one parent, one teacher/staff member, and
the Director – in order to conduct an election to fill three Board seats
being vacated at the end of this school year.
Accordingly, we are
seeking one parent volunteer to participate on the Election
Subcommittee along with a teacher/staff member and Dr. Stueven. Duties
for the role as part of the subcommittee are very basic and include: a)

and overseeing a public meeting for candidates to speak and be
interviewed by the public/parents, and c) overseeing the distribution
& collection of ballots and tallying the votes.
