Are you a school board member who believes in honest, equitable and fully funded schools? With over 80,000 members across our country serving 13,000+ districts nationwide, school boards are one of our closest expressions of local democracy in action.

This orientation is designed to help you move with confidence and clarity in your role, whether you’re newly elected or an experienced board member. Together, we’ll explore how to co-govern effectively with your superintendent and community, build a baseline understanding of policy levers you can use to advance equity, and get connected to upcoming trainings that will help you deepen your skills in governing for equity, collaboration, and community power.

Hosted in partnership with Local Progress Impact Lab and HEAL Together, this session is for pro-public education, pro-equity and pro-union school board members.
