The election of Parent Members to the Civitas Advisory Board is closed.The final vote count is being tallied by the election officers (Tom Nelson & Nils Patrick).

Thank you to all candidates.
Thank you also to all voters.
Civitas families consistently demonstrate dedication and civic involvement to Rio that is amazing and very much appreciated.
As an example, while Civitas families represent less than 10% of the Rio population, more of them voted in the Civitas Advisory Board election than all Rio parents who voted in the last School Site Council election.Candidates ran for 3 parent elected positions.Voters could vote for up to 3 candidates.
