Webinars: School Law

What requirements must board members be aware of when participating in a board meeting? Join an NJSBA attorney to discuss the Open Public Meetings Act, including the essential requirements of the Act and recent legal updates. Issues related to technology and remote participation will be discussed, among other developments.

We covered the area of Governance in Part 1. Join us as NJSBA’s field service department discusses the remaining four review areas of the New Jersey Quality Assurance Continuum (QSAC), the state’s monitoring and district self-evaluation system for public school districts. We will highlight the indicators that have direct board involvement and require action by the board of education.

“What is QSAC and how does it apply to my board responsibilities?” The Quality Single Accountability Continuum (QSAC) allows the NJ Department of Education (NJDOE) to identify High Performing school districts across the state. The NJDOE’s assessment of the board’s role in governance is a key factor in the district obtaining a high performing designation. Tune into this webinar for a short primer on the board’s role in QSAC’s governance assessment.
