  3. Using a 1-5 scale, review and rate ("star") other people’s thoughts.
    1. In this step, you will see your responses and those shared by others and assign 1 to 5 stars to each idea depending on how strongly you agree or disagree with it. We hope you can rate at least 10 thoughts, but 30 would be even better.

Don't forget to let us know your thoughts on the by-trustee area maps. AGAIN, these maps DO NOT affect where students attend school. Maps only pertain to board member elections.
