Last Chance for New Board Member Orientation

Board members who were elected or appointed between April and May 2007 have one remaining opportunity to attend the New Board Member Orientation Conference. The program will be held March 1 at the Robert Wood Johnson Hamilton Center for Health and Wellness, Mercer County.

The state’s School Ethics Act requires elected and appointed school board members to attend an NJSBA Orientation program in their first year of their first term.

To register, school board members should have their business administrator contact the NJSBA Call Center at (888) 886-5722, ext. 5217, or by e-mail.
