From the School Board January, 2020

Learning and Growing Together at the State Education Convention

 “Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world”   Nelson Mendela

The State Education Convention, sponsored in part by the Wisconsin Association of School Boards

(WASB), met January 21-24 in Milwaukee and provided an opportunity for school board members andother administrators from HSSD to network, learn and share important issues related to public

education in Wisconsin.

With the theme of “Expanding Your Vision,” representatives heard keynote speakers and attended

breakout sessions focusing on student learning, school finances, mental health, building community

relationships, just to name a few. Learning from another school board or district can open new

possibilities or create a reflection on our current policies for the Howard-Suamico School District.
