BOARD MEMBER INFORMATION:
BOARD TRAINING:
All Illinois school board members must receive training in Professional Development Leadership (P.A. 97-8) and the Open Meetings Act (P.A. 97-504). Mandatory training will also be required after new teacher evaluation requirements are implanted by the school district. For additional information, see Board policy 2:120 Board Member Development.
The following table contains mandatory and non–mandatory training and development activities that were completed by our district board members. When the training was provided by the Illinois Association of School Boards, the acronym “IASB” follows the listed activity. This list will be updated as board members complete and submit their training activities to the board secretary. Click HERE to see a chart that outlines the state’s mandatory training requirements, who must receive it, and the timeline for completing those courses.
Note: Individual board members may elect to attend additional professional development opportunities that are not required.
