Tolleson Union High School District presentations promote enrollment, ACT test and school programs
Representatives from Tolleson Union High School District schools used the meeting to promote enrollment, programs and the upcoming ACT exam.

Ashley Pollock, identified in the transcript as a math teacher at Tolleson Union High School, urged students to register for the ACT on Oct. 22 and described the test as "the key exam to determining how prepared you are for college" and as an entry point to scholarships and further opportunities. She noted the ACT would help students prepare for a final attempt in March and encouraged students to seek tutoring or practice tests from teachers or counselors.

Multiple schools delivered recorded or spoken statements promoting their programs. Speakers highlighted features across the district: career and technical education (CTE) options, performing and visual arts, JROTC, student clubs and athletics, and pathways to college and careers. Westview High School presenters noted that Westview is the only school in the district to offer welding and described available dual-enrollment and CTE options. Speakers described University High School as a consistently high-performing school and Sierra Linda and Westview as offering varied extracurricular and academic pathways.

Several long-tenured staff members introduced themselves and reflected on their tenure and programs. Clarice Miller identified herself as an English teacher in the district for 29 years; Paul Volkinberg said he has served 31 years. Speakers included student comments about plans after graduation and encouragement to enroll. Several presenters repeated the districtwide enrollment call: "We are enrolling now."

The presentations in the transcript are promotional in nature and do not contain new board policy or budget votes. The transcript records program claims and personal testimony but does not provide supporting data, budget figures, or enrollment counts beyond general statements.
