School Board Partners

I'm tweeting this today because I've had months of knowing that my friends at @schoolbpartners would be releasing their "Empowered Governance" tool-kit, and it's here! schoolboardpartners.org/governance-mod…

There has never been a more critical time to strengthen the leadership and governance of our nation’s public schools. Read more about #EmpoweredGovernance in our @edu_post feature: edpost.com/stories/is-you…

Congratulations to our Co-Founders and CEOs Carrie and Ethan for being selected to join such an impressive group of @NewDEALLeaders !! #NewDEALers

Steve Bannon supposedly said, 'I'd rather have 10,000 school board members than one president'...School boards are being used to dismantle public education in a number of ways.” - Carrie Douglass on @TheSWPpod's The Cost of Extremism go.redwine.blue/CoEtwth

Check out our New Op-Ed written by Carrie Douglass in the @hechingerreport about the important role that school boards play in tackling climate change! hechingerreport.org/opinion-why-sc…

Teachers are so important to the school systems that we lead. This #TeacherAppreciationWeek School Board Partners asked Ben Kleban, Policy Coach & Advisor, what's a great piece of advice you heard from an educator? Remember if you can read this, thank a teacher.

Hey #schoolboardmember! You are amazing!! Our co-founder Carrie Douglass is reminding you to not let the haters take up space in your mind, save that for those whose opinions matter to you! #mentalhealthawarenessmonth

Hey #schoolboardmember! You don’t need permission to be your whole self. Our co-founder Ethan Ashley is sending you some affirming words to show that we see you, we love you, you matter! #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth

Being a school board member can be both a rewarding and mentally taxing experience.  May is #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth and we at School Board Partners encourage you to prioritize your mental health.  Remember that you can’t pour into students and families from an empty cup!

"Real education should consist of drawing the goodness and the best out of our own students." #HappyCesarChavezDay! Today we celebrate civil rights and labor movement activist César Chávez and the cause — “La Causa” — to which he dedicated his life.

If you will be at the National School Board Association (#NSBA) Conference in Orlando this week - or if you know someone who will - please #joinus at our private reception at the Hyatt Regency Orlando hotel. We hope to see you there!

Education can make such an impact on a child's future. Now that we know better, we have to do better for all students and that starts with equity. Listen to hear how you can make change in your school district. go.redwine.blue/pod

Brown v Board of Education, and its aftermath still affects students today. If we don't learn from our past, we can't create a better future for all students. For more of our conversation with @EthanCAshley go to: go.redwine.blue/pod

Thank you to @TheSWPpod for having our Co-Founders Ethan and Carrie on for a conversation with @JasmineForHD108 about racism and equity in our schools and how parents can support school board members that are fighting for change. go.redwine.blue/pod

Strong boards are focused on the WHAT, WHO, & HOW to effectively govern our public school systems. #schoolboards #GoodGovernance

The calls for change, equity, and liberation is multi-generational. This is why at School Board Partners we encourage elected school board members to #bebrave and lead with courage, competence, and impact. The next generation is counting on us!
