Indiana School Boards Association has Scheduled Ten Regional School Board Candidate Forums

Indiana School Boards Association has Scheduled Ten Regional School Board Candidate Forums Around the State

These forums are designed to inform new candidates and incumbents running for re-election about school boardsmanship. Some of the topics to be discussed include the roles and responsibilities of being a school board member, ethics, and legal responsibilities, such as complying with the Open Door Law. There is time allotted for questions from the audience.

ISBA encourages as many local candidates to attend so if you are running or know someone running for your local school board please forward this information to them. Cost is $35 and each candidate will receive a school board candidate's kit, which contains valuable information on the financial, legal, and ethical aspects of serving on a school board.

Please see the schedule (below) for local dates and locations for the Candidate Forum in your area. ALL CANDIDATE FORUMS WILL BE HELD IN THEIR RESPECTIVE VENUES FROM 6:30-9:00PM AND ARE SUBJECT TO CANCELLATION IF THERE ARE LESS THAN 5 REGISTRATIONS AT A PARTICULAR SITE.
