Thanks for helping us provide children with new educational opportunities in Michigan. You're the key to making this happen. To make every single signature count, it’s important for you to follow the following instructions.

1. Check the volunteer box.

2. As the circulator, you must write in the COUNTY NAME at the top of each petition form. All of the signers of this petition sheet must be registered voters of that county. You can circulate petitions for any county, but each county must be on a different sheet.

3. The signer must sign their full name as they are registered to vote, and then write it in neatly in the next box.

4. The signer must write in the house number and street name, or rural route, where they live. No PO Boxes, please.

5. The signer must write in the City or Township where they are registered to vote. Villages and unincorporated areas are always within townships.

6. The signer next writes in their zip code.

7. Finally, the signer must write in the date they signed the petition, not their birth date.

8. After the circulator has gathered signatures, they must complete the Circulator section in the lower right of each petition form. No signatures can be added to the petition form after this portion has been completed and dated.

To wrap up the petition:

  • Make certain that all sections have been completed.

  • Ditto marks are not acceptable

  • Petition forms are acceptable with at least one, but no more than 9 signatures.

  • Yes, you can both sign and circulate a petition form.

  • When completed, return to us in the enclosed envelope.
