FSBA Sets 2018 State Legislative Platform

​​22814176_1627422943987324_5222948548378835019_nToday I attended the 2018 Florida School Board Association’s Legislative Platform Committee meeting in Gainesville. I am truly encouraged by the meeting and the final platform. I am grateful to represent Citrus County School Board on this committee. Click here for FSBA 2018 Legislative Platform!

Five items were approved and I am pleased with the items that did make it on to the final platform, in particular those that support School Board’s local control and alternatives to high stakes testing (and reduced mandated testing), an issue which I have been actively working and lobbying to improve since before becoming a school board member.

I am encouraged that this group of caring local school representatives (School Board Members) have together developed a platform that puts children first and supports our public education.
