this paragraph, which must allow all teachers and other licensed educational
personnel an opportunity to participate and be elected regardless of whether
the teachers or other licensed educational personnel are members of the
association.
(c) One member who is

association.
(d) A number of
parents or legal guardians of pupils who are enrolled at the local school
precinct which represents 50 percent of the total number of voting members if
possible, or, if fewer are available to accept membership, then the greatest
number of parents or legal guardians available. The parents or legal guardians
must be elected by a vote of all parents and legal guardians of pupils enrolled
at the local school precinct. A parent or legal guardian who is a teacher or
other licensed educational personnel or employee of the local school precinct
may not be elected to serve as a member pursuant to this paragraph, but may be
elected to serve as a member of the organizational team pursuant to paragraph
(b) or (c), as applicable. The association of parents for the school, if there
is one, must establish the process for nominating and electing these members
pursuant to this paragraph. If no such association exists, the principal of the
local school precinct must inform all parents and legal guardians of the
opportunity to serve on the organizational team and provide the parents and
guardians with information about the responsibilities associated with serving
as a member of the organizational team, the manner in which to submit a name to
be included on a ballot, the date on which a vote will be taken and any other
relevant information. The principal must post such information on the Internet
website of the local school precinct and provide the information to the
Superintendent who shall post the information on the Internet website of the
School District. The information must also be made available to any person upon
request.
2. If one or
more specialty schools exist within a local school precinct, at least one
member selected pursuant to paragraphs (b) and (d) of subsection 1 must
represent each specialty school on the organizational team.
3. If the local school precinct is a middle
school, junior high school or high school, the organizational team must have
one nonvoting member who is a pupil enrolled at the local school precinct who
is elected by a vote of all of the pupils enrolled at the school. Any pupil who
attends the school may request to be placed on the ballot to be elected to
serve as a member of the organizational team pursuant to this paragraph. A
teacher or administrator of the local school precinct may nominate a pupil but
the pupil may only be placed on the ballot if the pupil agrees to have his or
her name placed on the ballot. The principal of the school shall cause a vote
to be taken of the entire student body through secret ballot to elect the
student member. A member elected pursuant to this paragraph may only provide
assistance and advice regarding the plan of operation for the local school
precinct.

team may select one or more nonvoting advisory members from the community at
large who is not the parent or legal guardian of a pupil who attends the local
school precinct and who does not otherwise qualify to serve as a voting member
of the organizational team to assist the organizational team and provide input
from the community.
5. The
principal of a local school precinct shall assist as necessary with
establishing the process for nominating and electing the members described in
subsection 1 and shall ensure that each member who is elected pursuant to
paragraph (e) of subsection 1 is informed that the member is not an employee of
the local school precinct or the School District and of any potential liability
for serving as a member of the organizational team.
6. A person who receives the highest number
of votes must be appointed to the organizational team regardless of the total
number of votes cast for the position.
