The Idaho School Boards Association empowers and champions school boards to foster student success.

Resolutions

Resolutions representing the aims and purpose of the Idaho School Boards Association (ISBA) are considered one of the most important functions of the Associations.  Resolutions adopted at the Annual Convention establish ISBA’s legislative platform and automatically remain valid policy of the ISBA for a period of two years unless otherwise acted upon.
