Legislative Advocacy
There are many things parents can do to advocate for Puesta del Sol in the legislature. The more the legislature does its job, the less the PTA has to take up the slack. We strongly encourage parents (and teachers/staff) to join and follow Washington's Paramount Duty, a grassroots advocacy organization to get the WA state legislature to act on funding basic education.
