9. MY VISION
Create personalized learning pathways that allow our students to be competitive in a global society.
Increase the educational technology presence in our schools, allowing our students to gain
experiences and the necessary skills to be successful in college and career.
Develop and implement innovative programs and learning experiences that allow our students
opportunities to be multilingual, technology savvy, masters
of the arts, and proficient contributors in the STEM and
STEAM industries.
Restore financial stability to the District and grow community
trust and support for PUSD’s district mission of college and
career readiness for all students.

10. TRUSTEE ELECTION DISTRICTS
The District is changing how we elect school board members, from “at-large” to “by-district,” to comply with the California Voting Rights Act
We need to establish five voting districts covering PUSD, keeping in mind population, demographics, communities of interest, respect voters’ wishes, and continuity in office
Stakeholders have been asked to submit maps and comments/revisions by November 1, 2017
The Board needs to pick a preferred map at November 9, 2017 hearing
This goes into effect for the November 2018 election when three current board members’ terms end
