After an exciting year of legislation, MSBA hosted its Legislative Update and School Law Review. School Boards, Superintendents, and other school faculty were treated to information on charter schools, MAEP funding, Facebook, Discrimination, Ethics, and MORE!

Here are some of the responses from participants of this conference: 

Very informative and the information that was covered can assist in my decision making as a board member.

Great sessions!

Great job always – the portion on the July 1 new law regarding the superintendent’s evaluation was timely.

One of our best sessions.

Up to date information on topics presented.

Jim Keith is always great.

Good speakers, very motivational.

The legal advice was most helpful.

School boards are responsible for moving school district forward. We must hold the superintendent accountable and then the superintendent must hold the administrator accountable. Very informative!

The explanations and open questions were helpful. We need to have this type of session at each conference.

John Hooks was interesting.

Plenty of time for Legal matters – topics very timely.

Best MSBA meeting I’ve been to in nine years of service on my school board!
