WASB Founding

The WASB was founded in 1921, when school board members met in the Capitol in Madison to create the Wisconsin Association of High Schools and Graded School Boards. The first president was W. W. Albers, a Wausau school board member who also served in the state Senate for 10 years.

Centennial Reception

To commemorate its founding and kick off the yearlong celebration leading up to its centennial, the WASB invited past presidents, the Board of Directors and other important figures in its history to a Feb. 21 reception in the Capitol’s Senate Parlor.
