Five hundred school board directors, superintendents and other education officials from around Washington will meet on Sunday, March 1, for the annual legislative conference.

At this event, officials will discuss and support proposals adopted by the Legislative Assembly and hear from representatives such as Governor Jay Inslee, Superintendent of Public Instruction Randy Dorn and the Office of Financial Management Director David Schumacher.

According to the Washington State School Directors’ Association website, it is an opportunity for school board officials to hear the latest updates on budget and policy issues from each political party and to network with colleagues.

The conference is hosted by the Washington Association of School Administrators and the Washington Association of Business Officials.
