Voter Information

Registering to vote is an important and significant step for young adults to exercise the right to vote and participate in the democratic process.

In alignment with our school's mission and vision beliefs, we want to share information about the voter registration process for California. We ask and encourage families and students to support the effort in learning about voter registration, the voting process, and the importance of casting votes on local and national civic issues that affect our community.
