Education Law

Elect Education!

That's the title of a new toolkit (pdf link) produced by NSBA's Advocacy Office and developed exclusively for local school board members. The purpose is to help board members elevate the discussion of education in the upcoming Congressional campaigns. The non-partisan toolkit includes suggested activities and strategies that school board members, who are uniquely positioned in their communities to discuss education, can consider implementing, such as helping to put together candidate forums or meeting with the candidates running for Congress. It also features background information on key issues that the next Congress will have to tackle, including NCLB / ESEA reauthorization, funding, 21st century skills and competitiveness, and early education, among others.

Check out "Elect Education: A Campaign Toolkit for the Congressional Elections" on our website (pdf file).
