The Parents” Association Board voted to adopt the changes to the bylaws, which largely involved the use of the internet. Votes can be taken electronically.

The Parent’s Associations website is also changing. The Board voted unanimously to change the PA’s homepage to the flexible blog/newsletter format you see here. The blog will reside on the UCLS server. Instead of putting out a monthly newsletter, we will continuously update the homepage as things happen to give parents the most up-to-date information in a more timely fashion. Soon the domain name of our old homepage www.uclspa.org will point to this page instead. We would appreciate any feedback you have for us on the new website, which is still under construction. If there’s anything you’d like to see or find out about here, please let us know. We want to make the Parents’ Association’s website the first place you go to find out what you, as a parent, need to know.
