SUMMARY:Making the Most out of Your School Board Service: Effective Governance and the Superintendent Evaluation Process
DESCRIPTION:Register here \nWe invite you to join us for a one-hour webinar on May 27 at 12 pm CDT with Aaron Salt. This webinar is designed to provide a practical\, high-level overview for school board members and superintendents who are interested in creating a superintendent evaluation that is student-focused and promotes a culture of accountability\, trust\, and shared vision for student academic achievement. \nSchool board members hold a critical responsibility in setting the mission\, vision\, strategic priorities\, and goals that shape a culture of excellence grounded in accountability and trust. Ensuring the district is led by a superintendent who shares the board’s vision and is committed to advancing academic achievement and preparing students for college and careers is essential to long-term success and a strong board-superintendent partnership. \n  \nPanelist: \nAaron Salt\, author of Govern Differently\, currently serves as the Executive Vice President for School Boards for Academic Excellence. His decade of educational leadership spans the rare trifecta of founding and chairing a charter school\, serving as elected school board president\, and leading district operations as COO and Interim Superintendent. Salt has driven measurable results including increased student achievement\, expanded CTE certifications\, and strategic budget management during fiscal crises. He holds degrees from Auburn University and Florida State University. Salt lives in Colorado with his wife of 15 years and their four children. \nRegister here

SUMMARY:The Mississippi Miracle: How Mississippi Improved Reading Scores
DESCRIPTION:Register here \nWe invite you to join us on Wednesday\, June 17th at 12:00 PM (CDT) for an informational webinar delving into the “miraculous” improvement in reading and math scores in Mississippi. \nThe unprecedented improvements in fourth grade reading and math scores that occurred in Mississippi between 1998 and 2024\, moving them from the worst in the country to among the highest\, was labeled a “miracle.” State departments of education and individual districts are trying to figure out the secret to Mississippi’s success in hopes of emulating the results. However\, the reality is far more complex than most might expect. \nDouglas Carswell will explore the key innovations\, difficult decisions\, and unwavering commitment to systemic change that created Mississippi’s “miracle.” \nPanelist: Douglas Carswell \nDouglas Carswell is a leader of the liberty movement with experience building high-performing teams that achieve change. For the past five years\, he has led a state-based think tank in Mississippi\, securing a string of free-market reforms\, including major labor market deregulation in 2021\, comprehensive tax reform in 2022\, school funding reforms in 2024\, and legislation to eliminate the income tax in 2025. \nHaving been a laggard for decades\, Mississippi is now one of the fastest-growing states in America. \nPreviously a Member of the British Parliament for 12 years\, Douglas co-founded Vote Leave\, the official Brexit campaign. Re-elected every time he ran\, Douglas achieved one of the largest swings in any election in British history when he called a special election on himself to secure the Brexit vote. \nDouglas was born in Britain\, raised in Uganda\, but came to America by choice. \nHe is the author of five books\, as well as Milestones\, a radical policy blue print for the reforms Britain needs. He served as a non-executive director at the UK Department of for International Trade\, helping secure free trade deals around the world. \nDouglas lives in Flowood\, with his wife\, Clementine\, daughter\, Kitty\, and Crumble\, the dog. \nRegister here
