If you’ve ever thought, “I could make a difference on my local board,” this session will give you the structure, support, and inspiration to take the next step. It’s time to channel your passion into power – and School Board Partners (SBP) is here to help.
In partnership with Justin McCorkle (formerly of Leaders of Color), SBP invites aspiring school board candidates to an engaging, hands-on webinar that demystifies the process of running—and winning—with purpose.
Participants will learn how to:
- Understand the Role: Clarify what school boards do, how they operate, and the kind of change you can drive
- Analyze the System: Identify performance gaps and envision student-centered improvements.
- Build a Campaign with Intention: Develop a strategy grounded in values, community, and impact.
- Master the Process: Learn the nuts and bolts of running a campaign—from building your team to navigating finances and voter outreach.
- Tell Your Story: Craft a clear, confident narrative that highlights your “why” and connects with voters.
Whether you’re preparing for your first run or refining your next campaign, you’ll leave with concrete tools, insights, and a renewed sense of purpose to lead with clarity, integrity, and impact.
