Basic Training for New Board Members

Terry Kohl (top left), a Group Leader at NJSBA’s weekend New Board Member Orientation conference, discusses decision-making within the constraints of law and board policies with attendees at a small group session. Kohl is president of the Metuchen Board of Education, and she has served as an NJSBA trainer since 2001.

The Friday-to-Sunday conference was the last of the three-day programs. In order to help boards reduce lodging costs, future weekend orientations will be two-day conferences starting Saturday morning and ending late Sunday afternoon.
