Board Training - Legislative and Community Engagement

Date: March 2, 2026

Time: 4:00 p.m. - 5:00 p.m. EST

Session Description: The most useful, under-utilized asset in advancing the mission of a school are board members. Every board member brings a strong combination of passion and influence to their board service that– if leveraged– can powerfully accelerate the school's success. Being an active advocate/ambassador for your school is a part of each board member's fundamental role and responsibility. This workshop will strengthen the board’s collective ability to elevate the school’s visibility by leveraging board members’ personal influence and networks.

Presenters:

  • Brooke Franklin -- School Consultant, GVSU CSO
  • Marianne Fant -- Grassroots and Outreach Director, MAPSA
