2026 Southern Region Leadership Conference

The LSBA Board of Directors knew that it was time for our association to rebrand itself and really focus on what “Good Governance” is all about. In leading today’s and tomorrow’s school board members and superintendents, understanding their roles and responsibilities are key in increasing better student outcomes. The LSBA Team and the LSBA Board of Directors did a deep dive into what today’s standards and best practices are for school board members and superintendents. We aligned that work to LSBA’s Mission: Leadership, Service and Support for School Boards. The LSBA developed its’ rebranding standards/best practices into the “Keys to Good Governance.” Attendees will learn what governance is/is not and how it takes the governance leadership team, that is comprised of school board members and the superintendent, to understand the importance of an established framework to keep everyone focused on “THE KEYS.” Participants will also gain an understanding that when there is a clear road map that provides an understanding of how to achieve set goals, it is a WIN-WIN for ALL educational stakeholders!
