 Trailwood's two state senators have agreed to join us for our October 9 evening PTA meeting. Come out to Trailwood at 7 p.m. to meet state Senator Barbara Bollier and Senator John Skubal. They will be prepared to discuss school funding and will take questions about other issues of concern to you and our community. This is a real treat to have them so please mark your calendars and plan to attend. **Complimentary babysitting available**  Election Day is Around The Corner! Election Day is November 6 and this is a huge election for public education. You'll be voting for Kansas Governor and your representative in the Kansas State House, which allocate state funds to public schools like Trailwood. You'll also be voting for Member of Congress, County Commission and more! The PTA as a nonprofit organization does not endorse candidates, although we encourage you to be as informed as possible. There are several education-focused groups, including Education First Shawnee Mission, Stand Up Blue Valley and the Kansas National Education Association (KNEA), who do endorse candidates that they believe will support public education in Kansas. There are several opportunities to meet and hear directly from candidates before election day at candidate forums.
