Please take a moment and consider contributing to our organization in one of these elected positions. Please see the roles and the time commitments document to learn more about what is involved in each role.
You may nominate yourself or someone else you think would be a good candidate. Any nominated member may withdraw their name if they desire. Once elected, board members are required by national by-laws to be a member of the national Computer Science Teachers Association as well as members of the CSTA Washington chapter. CSTA Washington will cover the modest annual fee for membership upon request. Nominees are encouraged to speak with existing officers if they have questions regarding roles, responsibilities and time commitment required.
Nominations may be submitted via Google form (https://forms.gle/WBhVu5wZcTJ8eGgi6). Please include a brief paragraph (around 2-4 sentences) introducing yourself to the membership, so we can include it on the ballot.
After nominees have been determined, all members in current standing will be emailed a ballot. Only members of CSTA Washington may vote during elections. Please take a moment and join and/or renew your membership - your participation is how we thrive!
Deadline for nominations: Saturday May 31, 2025
