Council Elections

Voting is not in progress at this time.

Candidacy Information

Olympus Jr High announces four parent openings for the 2026-2027 school year. Declarations of candidacy are due Aug 28, 2026 by 3 pm to the principal's office. Elections will be held in September.

 

School Community Councils are elected parent/guardian and employee representatives who work together with the principal to increase student achievement. By law, the Council is responsible to review school data and develop plans for school improvement. Councils also allocate the LAND Trust funds to assist the school in reaching achievement goals. Please visit the Granite School District's Community Council page for more information regarding the roles and responsibilities of Community Councils.

Parents elect parent representatives and employees elect employees for two-year terms. To be eligible, a parent must have a student enrolled in the school for at least one of the years and may not be a contract employee at the school. We invite you to become involved in your school’s Community Council by declaring your candidacy.
