🌟 Our School Board Continues to Lead with Purpose! 🌟
Members of our district’s school board recently attended the TSBA Leadership Conference & Annual Convention at the Gaylord Opryland Resort & Convention Center, and it was a powerful weekend focused on strengthening #leadership and elevating #student success across Tennessee.
Throughout the conference, board members attended inspiring keynotes, clinics and workshops, explored innovative ideas and celebrated the achievements of school leaders statewide. 💡📚
They also participated in the #TSBA Delegate Assembly, helping shape the association’s work for the coming year by electing officers, approving the strategic plan and voting on key resolutions.
We’re grateful for our board’s dedication to learning and advocating for our students, staff and community. Here’s to strong leadership and an even brighter year ahead!❤️✨
