Kansas School Board Legal Hotline
January 30, 2025
Description
On Thursday, January 30th at 4 pm (CDT) KSBRC hosted a webinar to learn more about free legal services now available to all Kansas school boards through School Boards for Academic Excellence (SBAE), a national organization committed to restoring academic excellence. KSBRC is proud to introduce you to David Hoyt, Executive Director of School Boards for Academic Excellence, and the legal hotline team, Ryan Kriegshauser and Josh Ney, founders of the Kriegshauser Ney Law Group. The panelists will discuss the purpose of the new legal services to provide Kansas school board members with (free) legal advice on various issues related to their roles and responsibilities. They will discuss how they will provide legal guidance to school board members to navigate obstacles for needed reforms, whether dealing with policy implementation, compliance with state and federal laws, reconciling needed policy reforms with existing state and local statutes, or other legal concerns.
