Winter Virtual County Association Meetings and Programs

This winter, the county school boards association meetings will be held virtually due to possible inclement weather.

The meetings will include the content-rich programming that is a hallmark of county school boards associations.

Some topics that will be discussed at meetings throughout the winter, include:

• An introduction to artificial intelligence in an educational environment.
• School finance and budgets.
• Role of a school board administrator/board secretary. 
• Energy savings improvement programs.

For more information on meeting topics, please visit the County School Boards Association’s page.

Board members are welcome to attend meetings in any county — not just their home county.
