Wisconsin School News

Wisconsin School News is a 10-month-a-year magazine that brings interesting and useful stories to educational leaders, who draw on these insights to improve public education.

We welcome unsolicited articles from educators, school board members, administrators and others. If you would like to write an article, please contact the WASB at info@wasb.org.

WASB Connection Podcast

Once a month, the WASB Connection Podcast brings you new conversations about education that help you be a better board member. For those who are unfamiliar with podcasts, they’re like a mix between talk radio and a magazine. Once you subscribe, the newest version is automatically downloaded to your phone or device. There are lots of apps to subscribe to the podcast, including Spotify and Apple Podcasts.

If you would like to join us on the podcast, please email the WASB at info@wasb.org.

Member Recognition Program

In recognition of the importance of professional development, the WASB awards points to board members who participate in WASB and activities. Each August, the WASB sends out a Member Recognition Report, which reflects WASB programs attended for that year and the total accumulated points. Qualifying board members receive pins and certificates at their Regional Meeting that fall.
