Helping School Boards Succeed

Governance

MSBA is governed by a Board of Directors made up of local school board members from districts throughout the state of Missouri.

MSBA serves as the unified voice of school board members throughout the state. We help school boards to put resources in the classroom.

School board members govern their local school districts while they are elected leaders who advocate for public schools in their community.
