Board of Education Training
All Illinois school board members must receive training in Professional Development Leadership (P.A. 97-8) and the Open Meetings Act (P.A. 97-504). Mandatory training will also be required after new teacher evaluation requirements are implemented by the school district.
The following table contains the mandatory training and development activities that have been completed by our district board members. This list will be updated as board members complete and submit their training activities to the board secretary.
Note: Individual board members may elect to attend additional professional development opportunities that are not required. Those trainings are not part of this listing.
