To the families of incoming 9^th-12^th graders from Alachua County Public Schools:

Alachua County Public Schools is searching for students who will be in high school in the next school year to share their opinions with school, district and community leaders.

The Amplified Student Voice Coalition offers students the opportunity to offer their perspective, feedback and possible solutions to important issues within our schools. The group will meet regularly to discuss and share their ideas for improving schools from the student's point of view.

The district is looking for representation from all students, regardless of their leadership role at school or their involvement in extracurricular activities.
