Welcome New School Board Member

Congratulations! We are pleased to be among the first to welcome you to the ranks of the most dedicated people we have ever had the pleasure to meet, school board members.

You will undoubtedly find that your term as a school board member will be some of the most memorable years of your life. Yes, you will face great challenges in your new leadership role. Most important, you will be filled with a great sense of accomplishment knowing that you have had a hand in making good things happen for the children and youth in your school district.

You are an extraordinary person to volunteer your time and effort to the worthwhile cause of helping Alaska's kids succeed. We want you to know how much your commitment is appreciated.

Many board members have told us that school boarding has an unanticipated benefit to them as individuals. And they appreciate the personal and professional growth opportunities that they find available to them through AASB. Remember, if there is anything we can do to help you in the future, we hope you will never hesitate to give us a call.
