In this inaugural episode, we spoke with Cheryl W. Ryan, OSBA director of board and management services, and Mark E. Bobo, OSBA membership retention and engagement consultant, about the more than 400 new board members who embarked on their school board service journey in January. What can a new board member expect in his or her first year? And, more importantly, how can OSBA help?
Then we sat down with OSBA Deputy Chief Executive Dr. Kathy McFarland to talk about mental health and social-emotional learning, which are becoming widely recognized as key influencers on student success and health, not just in the classroom but also in life.
Thanks for being a loyal listener!
