PRESS RELEASE: NSBC Releases 1st Comprehensive Resource for School Board Officials

School Board Leadership: The Right Way is designed to be a beacon for school board members, expertly guiding them through the governance hurdles.

WASHINGTON, DC, UNITED STATES, January 30, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ — We are pleased to announce the launch of “School Board Leadership: The Right Way.”

This comprehensive resource, written by Laura Zorc and Dr. Karen Hiltz, both former school board members, is now available on Amazon. The new book provides a comprehensive, fact-based resource for all 95,000 school board members across the country. It presents an alternative approach to the often one-sided training offered by state organizations and the National School Boards Association (NSBA).

A timely release considering the Trump administration’s proposed changes to dismantle the U.S. Department of Education: the book addresses important must-know topics reinforcing the board’s roles and responsibilities, such as onboarding new members, fiduciary duties, and budgeting. Its goal is to empower school board members to lead effectively, emphasizing accountability, transparency, and active engagement while considering their state laws, powers, and authority.

Dr. Karen Hiltz adds that while the book is intended for school board members, it also benefits candidates, parents, and advocates for school choice by clarifying their roles and responsibilities.

Laura Zorc and Dr. Karen Hiltz are available for in-person interviews in DC or via telephone. For more details about the initiative, please email: press@schoolboardscoalition.org.
