Voting for the next President of The United States is a big deal to those who are hitting the voting polls today. However, canvassers across central Indiana, are encouraging voters to pay attention to ballot items that will impact classrooms.

According to Fox 59, Debra Pasha, whose granddaughter goes to Indianapolis Public Schools, is passing out flyers encouraging people to vote for more than just the president.

“We’re encouraging the voters that when they do their presidential voting, flip the ballot over in order to vote for the school board members, because it won’t catch on a straight ticket,” Pasha said.

“Even if they don’t have children in the system, we still need their support for the ones that are there,” Pasha said.
