Board members elected or appointed in the spring have only one more opportunity to attend the weekend New Board Member Orientation Conference: The Sept. 7-9 program. After that, only one-day programs will be available.
The nationally acclaimed weekend Orientation offers a more comprehensive training program than the one-day program. The $340 cost includes materials and meals. If room accommodations are required, a separate reservation must be made directly with the conference center.
The conference—held at the Lakeside Conference Center and Hotel at Forrestal, Plainsboro—starts with dinner at 5:45 p.m. Friday and ends at 11:45 a.m. Sunday.
To register for the program, contact Heidi Bullock by e-mail or by calling (888) 886-5722, ext. 5217.
The School District Accountability Act requires boards to pass a resolution in advance approving travel and training expenditures. Sample resolutions are online at NJSBA's Accountability Act resource page. |
