By now, many school board members and school leaders
know what community engagement means because they have attended workshops or
panel sessions, or read about IASB’s research and professional development on
this critical governance topic.
For those who haven’t or
who may be new to the school board, IASB has also developed an introductory video.
Available on the Association’s YouTube page, this 3:09 message is a brief
overview of community engagement work as it relates to IASB’s Foundational Principles of Effective
Governance.
If the video is not displaying correctly, click HERE.
We also encourage you to share it with others on the
district leadership team. And when you are ready to explore the topic in
greater detail, you can read IASB’s full report, “Connecting with the
Community: the Purpose and Process of Community Engagement as part of Effective
School Board Governance.”
