Board President Green elected to leadership position in area school board association
| Tuesday, May 13th, 2008 |
 La Porte ISD school trustee Kathy Green has been elected Secretary/Treasurer of the Gulf Coast Area Association of School Boards (GCAASB) for the 2008-2009 school year.
The GCAASB is a voluntary organization composed of more than 50 school boards in the greater Houston area to enhance the quality of education for public school children in the Texas Gulf Coast area by providing education and information to local school boards, and creating an opportunity for local school boards to impact legislation affecting the public schools.
The dues paid by GCAASB member school boards and associate members, who are supporters of public education, provide state Ârequired training for local trustees at quarterly meetings, produce a regular newsletter, and support educational excellence at the local school level through a scholarship program.
"The experience that Mrs. Green has gained on her local Board of Trustees will benefit all of the students, staffs, and schools in the Gulf Coast Area Association as it is combined on the Executive Board with the experience of trustees from 14 other school districts," said GCAASB Executive Secretary Jerry Smith. "That leadership will be meaningful!" |
