Volunteers Needed for Yes on Measure T!
Measure T seeks to provide $4.5 million annually to maintain our quality high school instruction and help recruit and retain our top teachers. Measure T is on the May 6 special election ballot, and we need your help getting the word out to voters during this off-year election. Turning out parent voters will be critical to our success. Here’s how you can help:

1. Join us for a neighborhood walk: Knocking on doors is one of the most effective ways to reach voters. Our first walk is planned for Saturday, Mar 22. We’ll be training you on everything you need to know to have a successful canvas on Thursday, Mar 20, at 7pm. You can sign up using this link. Can’t make it? Request a recording of the training here.
2. Endorse the campaign: Join local leaders, teachers, and parents by adding your name to our growing list of supporters. Endorse Measure T using this link.
3. Display a lawn sign: Help us spread awareness about the campaign by displaying a lawn sign. You can request one here!

Please join us in endorsing and spreading the word about Measure T!
 
Measure T will provide locally controlled funding to attract and retain great teachers and provide top academics for our students in the Acalanes Union High School District. The measure is on the May 6 special ballot, and we need your help 1) endorsing the measure and 2) contacting voters during this off-year election. Measure T is a $130 parcel tax for 8 years, with an optional senior exemption and an independent citizen’s oversight committee.
 
We need your help! Please join us for canvassing training on March 20! You’ll learn everything you need to know to help us knock on doors and turn out the vote for our local schools.
 
What: Measure T Canvassing Training
When: March 20, 7pm
Where: Zoom
 
Please sign up using this link to let us know you’re coming!
 
What to expect: During the training, we’ll provide talking points, app training, and general dos and don’ts of door knocking. We’ll also teach you how to sign up for your voter contact list.
 
You don’t need to be an expert to talk to voters! Our goal is to remind friendly, targeted voters to turn in their ballots during this unique election season—not to convince undecided voters!
 
Timing is flexible—canvass with a partner or on your own, at your convenience.
 
If you can’t make the training, a recording will be sent afterward. Click here to receive the recording.
 
Sign up to join us on a neighborhood walk!
