FSBA 36th Annual FSBA Day in the Legislature

The Day in the Legislature and the Board of Directors’ Meeting | March 15 – 17 | Tallahassee

Registration is now closed. On-site registration will be available with a $30 late fee included.

This event, held in Tallahassee, serves to underscore FSBA’s role as the voice of education in Florida, demonstrate FSBA’s advocacy on education issues currently being considered by the Florida Legislature, and promote best practices in advocacy.

Day in the Legislature provides members an opportunity to hear from members of the Florida Legislature, learn the education topics being considered within the legislative process, and meet with educational leaders.

In addition, information will be shared regarding filed bills and their potential impact on students and districts as well as an update on the proposed budget and process.

Board members can earn points in the Certified Board Member (CBM) Program for attending this training.
