This week’s spotlight Event-PTO Meeting- Learn About the Sinking
Fund! In a little over a month, you will be asked to decide an important issue in the November election. The Troy School District is asking voters to consider a 1 mill Building and Site Sinking Fund. This fund would be created at NO INCREASE TO YOUR CURRENT TAX RATE and would allow us to make necessary repairs and refurbishments to Morse and the rest of our schools. If you have questions about this proposal, there is lots of information and a FAQ link on the TSD website: http://www.troy.k12.mi.us/apps/news/article/754460 But the most important thing to do right now is to make sure you are registered to vote! The last day to register is Tuesday, October 10th. Here is the form, which can be dropped off at the City Clerk's office: https://troymi.gov/Departments/City%20Clerk/Election%20Information/MIVoterRegistration_97046_7.pdf Dr. Machesky speaks to the Sinking Fund : https://vimeo.com/236945632
