Annual Convention

Annual Convention

The OSBA Annual Convention is Oregon’s premier continuing education program — delivering practical solutions to help school boards and their superintendents improve student learning and achievement. Whether you are a veteran board member, a superintendent, a board support professional or a first-time attendee, you’ll leave the conference with practical ideas and a renewed commitment to help your board accomplish the critical work ahead. The convention features some of the “best practices” from school boards across the state.

Bonds, Ballots, and Buildings Conference

Bonds, Ballots and Buildings Conference

Is a bond measure or local option levy in your future? Then don’t miss OSBA’s Bonds, Ballots and Buildings Conference, held once every two years in Salem. This event has a long history of providing resources to help school districts and community colleges plan facilities, define and communicate bond costs to voters, and learn tactics for effective bond campaigns. OSBA is bringing experts in construction and facility planning, finance, surveys and communications together to provide workshops and resources in a one-day conference.

SBC 2024 is leadership development for all levels of board service.  It is intended to provide school board members with nuts and bolts-type information regarding board work and provide boards with practicable information to take back to their boardrooms and implement immediately.
