The Indiana School Boards Association held its 4th annual ISBA State House Day at the Indianapolis Downtown Marriott Hotel on Tuesday, Feb 15, and Concord School Board member Tim Yoder was among those in attendance.
The ISBA State House Day offers school board members the opportunity to receive an in-depth briefing from ISBA staff and key legislative leaders on the important education issues under consideration in the current session of the Indiana General Assembly. School board members in attendance receive timely information and valuable insight to effectively engage in grassroots advocacy.
The event opened with ISBA Executive Director Terry Spradlin and ISBA General Counsel Lisa Tanselle providing an update on the status of bills affecting the education community. Other activities included: A panel discussion with the leaders of the four legislative caucuses, a Q&A session with chairs and ranking minority members of the House and Senate education committees, lunch with legislators and one-on-one meetings with local lawmakers.
Thank you, Tim Yoder for representing Concord at this event! #ConcordPride
