Measure T

On Wednesday, October 21st at 8:05am, join Ortega teachers, staff, and Otter community in support of Measure T, in front of Ortega school on the sidewalk! Help us show support for funding our Pacifica school programs!

Measure T will be on the November ballot to renew an existing parcel tax that provides critical funding for Pacifica elementary and middle schools. A yes vote on Measure T will allow Ortega to continue funding:

• Library Media Techs (Librarians) at all of our schools
• School counselors 
• Free Outdoor Ed for all of our 5th graders

There is a lot to vote on in the upcoming elections, so we thought we would share some resources on how to learn more about the candidates running for the Pacifica School Board.

Here is a Q& A session with the candidates from September 19th:
