You host a great Day on the Hill with training for Board members. I like the way you bring all the players together.
We hope you will enjoy your few days with us in Boise. In addition to the presentations that ISBA will make to the House and Senate Education Committees, we have two great workshops planned for you.
Also, you will have an opportunity to have lunch with your legislators. The purpose of the lunch with your legislators is to discuss the things that are impacting your district and to encourage their vote on key issues, especially those related to resolutions that have been passed by ISBA.
In order to assist you with your discussions, we have Monday’s 9:00 AM Workshop titled: Message Training – Hot Topic Legislative Issues planned prior to going to the Capitol for our first session with the Senate Education Committee. This session will focus on talking points and effective strategies for communicating the current hot topic issues impacting public schools. We’ll equip attendees with facts and information you can discuss with your legislators. We hope you will take the time to participate in this workshop. Prior to the workshop, we hope you will take a few minutes and review the issues that are of greatest importance to ISBA, which are outlined in the Day on the Hill program you’ll receive at the ISBA registration desk at The Grove Hotel.
Our Tuesday Workshops will be held after the lunch with legislators and will help trustees understand the importance of Accountability & Continuous Improvement, as well as Board Basics. Our hope is that you will head back to your board meetings with renewed enthusiasm, and a greater understanding of your role as a school trustee.
If you have any questions while you are here, please feel free to ask any of our staff. We hope you find the ISBA Day on the Hill worthwhile and that you enjoy your stay in Boise.
