Escobedo MS's SOT Election Schedule
All parents are invited to get involved!
What is the SOT?
As part of the reorganization of the Clark County School District, each year Escobedo Middle School forms a School Organizational Team (SOT.) The SOT is comprised of three (3) parents and/or guardians, two (2) teachers, one support staff member, one (1) student and the principal. Parent members will be elected by a vote of all parents and guardians at the school. Your input is important to the success of our school and students. Please take time to consider how you can be involved in this process and make your voice heard at our school!
