As the role of the County Offices of Education continues to evolve, this conference is dedicated to providing COE board members with the tools and information to empower them to be effective elected education leaders. This year’s sessions will address governance during challenging times, focusing on the unique responsibilities that differentiate county school board members from district board members. Be inspired as you leave with new ideas for serving students.
County boards of education and county superintendents have separate and shared roles and responsibilities. To serve students effectively, both must work collaboratively. This workshop presents the work to date of the CCBE Shared Governance Initiative. Learn how the Initiative provides a comprehensive review of county board responsibilities, including in-depth discussions of critical issues such as budget approval, appeals, and setting of the superintendent's salary. Hear how county boards and superintendents use shared governance best practices based on collaboration and trust. Learn how the Shared Governance Initiative's tools and resources can help your county.
