We equip education advocates and aspiring school board members with the knowledge and network to drive systemic change.
About us
Our mission is to activate a diverse coalition of education advocates and aspiring school board members to create significant and sustainable change in their school system. We prepare participants with the skills, mindset, networks, and experiences needed to be ready to serve as effective school board members and education advocates. At School Board School, we: -Prepare participants to lead and govern: Our 6-month program is comprised of 20 sessions and field trip experiences led by content area experts. These experiences provide participants with a deep understanding of how school districts operate and what it takes to make systemic change. -Develop diverse leadership: We are building a network of people who have historically been affected by but not included in this work. We grow their confidence, skills, knowledge and network so that educational leadership at all levels- from community activists to school board members- represents the fullness of our community. -Launch strong coalitions: Individuals can have a positive impact but they don’t change systems; coalitions change systems. Our participants start as a group of individuals considering the independent actions they can take to make change but grow into a coalition of people strengthened by collective and sustained action.
