The OSBA Annual Convention is Oregon’s premier continuing education program — delivering practical solutions to help school board members, superintendents and all types of education leaders improve student learning and achievement.
Whether you are a first-time attendee or a veteran board member, school administrator or administrative professional, you’ll leave the conference with practical ideas and a renewed commitment to help your school accomplish the critical work ahead. The convention features some of the best practices from school districts, education service districts, charter schools and community colleges across the state.
