New Oregon School Board Members of Color Caucus debuts

Local board members from around Oregon, with support from OSBA and its Board of Directors, have established a new Oregon School Board Members of Color Caucus.
 
The caucus, headed by President Carlos Castaneda (Gladstone School Board), has a number of objectives, including:

• Promoting a high-quality education for all students, focusing on the needs of students of color;
• Promoting positive relationships between school board members of color, their communities, political leaders and OSBA;
• Encouraging individuals of color to run for school boards.

More information about the caucus, including membership options, is available on the OSBA website.

Also a workshop about the caucus is planned for 11 a.m. Saturday, Nov. 12, during OSBA’s 70th Annual Convention in Portland. Convention registration materials can be found here.
