The District recognizes the importance of voting and civic engagement. As such, the District seeks to encourage student voter registration and pre-registration. A person who is at least sixteen years of age and who is otherwise qualified to register to vote may pre-register to vote, and will then be automatically registered to vote upon reaching the age of eligibility as provided by law.

* The District promotes student voter registration and pre-registration through the following means:
  1. Collaborating with county boards of elections to conduct voter registration and pre- registration in the District's high school(s); and
  2. Encouraging voter registration and pre-registration at various student events throughout the year.
The completion and submission of voter registration or pre-registration forms will not be a course requirement or graded assignment for District students.
