The Town of Sunnyvale Needs Your Feedback
Raider Nation,
The Town of Sunnyvale is excited to announce the launch of Polco, an innovative online engagement platform that lets community members provide direct input to our local decision-making process regarding the policies and programs.
As part of this launch, Sunnyvale’s leadership wants the public’s insight on The National Community Survey, also called The NCS. Specifically, the Town Council wants to know what they can do to work toward a better, safer community that also provides its residents with the amenities they value.
Keep An Eye On Your Mailbox!
In early May, Sunnyvale residents should receive an invitation to participate in an initial survey in the mail. That invitation will include instructions about how to register and take the survey. Once they have answered the survey questions, residents provide their email address and ZIP code. This ensures the Town only hears from each person once. It also collects information on the general area where respondents live.
In May, We Celebrate Asian Pacific American Heritage Month
District Calendar Now Available

SHS Seniors Needs Project Graduation: WE NEED YOUR HELP!
Please note date change
The Senior Class of 2023 is looking for corporate donations for their Project Graduation event to be held on May 19th. We fundraise to not only provide a safe place for the students to celebrate each other and their accomplishments, but we also provide food throughout the night, gifts to the students, a DJ and other needed things.
Would you please consider being one of our sponsors? Sunnyvale Project Graduation is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit corporation, so you donation will be tax-deductible. Project Graduation is not sponsored by SISD.
Please contact Kim-Lyon at 972-571-9401.
