Each week when voting opens we will provide a link to the ballot. You can share that link with family and friends. Each vote is $1 but there is no limit on the number of votes each candidate can receive.

During the Debate Round, students will be able to cast a free vote via the voting cart that will come to their classrooms.

We have candidates in four categories:

1) Land: basically anything on four legs or a belly!

2) Sea: lives in the water

3) Air: they can fly - or at least try hard to

4) Plushie: filled with love

1. Your pet's name
2. Owner's first and last name (the owner's name will remain private)
3. Owner's email address
4. Which category (listed above) that you are entering
5. In one sentence tell us how your pet, as Mayor, will care for others
6. Submit a photo of your candidate (no humans in the photos). You will be able to do that with your application. (JPEG image, vertical format)

We are no longer accepting candidate applications. Review the voter pamphlet and get ready to vote!

We only have space for 70 candidates. Please submit early!

Voting will be broken down into sessions as follows:

Preliminaries: The top 10 candidates in each category will be announced.

Debates: Voting resets to 0, and then the debates begin! Students can cast a free vote via the voting cart that will come to their classrooms. The top 3 candidates in each category will be announced.

Primary: Voting resets to 0, and the final round of online voting begins! The top 3 candidates overall will be announced.

Election: Voting resets to 0, and students head to the polls and vote for their new Mayor.

You can vote for as many candidates as you like! There is a $1 minimum per vote and no maximum. You can vote every day or even multiple times a day. Whatever it takes to help your candidate win! Spread the word!

Students can submit one poster that will be hung in the lobby - it will be digitized and run on the lobby screen. Please drop them off at the main office (don’t hang on your own and make no outlandish statements).

Candidates who make it to the Debates will be offered the opportunity to provide a promotional video. We will share it with the teachers to show the students.

Candidates who make it to the Primary may make their personal statement (via the pet owner) during morning announcements.

Please reach out to the Advancement Team with any questions!
