Show-Me Curriculum Administrators Association

“Membership in SMCAA is a district-level membership. Registration is based on district size and gives all district teachers, administrators, and curriculum leaders membership privileges. Each district is entitled to one vote on SMCAA matters that require a vote of its membership; i.e. changes to its By-Laws.”

“Member districts are divided into regional organizations, as determined by the Board of Directors. Each regional organization nominates one person to the Board of Directors, to be ratified by the sitting Board of Directors. Members to the Board of Directors serve three-year terms.”

“An annual membership meeting is held each year on such date as may be called by the President or Board of Directors, to transact business as may properly be brought before the meeting and to ratify each year's nomination(s) to the Board of Directors, as may be appropriate. Special membership meetings may be held for any purpose or purposes and may be called by the President, by the Board of Directors, or at the request of ten percent (10%) of the members and shall be called by any officer directed to do so by the Board of Directors. Business transacted at special meetings shall be confined to the purposes stated in the notice of such meeting.”

“The Board of Directors will be provided a copy of the Form 990, as a part of the annual audit review and presentation.”

“The Executive Director reviews every SMCAA financial transaction on a monthly basis. The Board of Directors reviews financial transactions, Profit/Loss statements, at every meeting of the Board; the Executive Director and Executive Committee review the year's budget and year's transactions at its annual meeting each May and the Board reviews the annual audit report.”

“Upon directive from the Board of Directors, SMCAA gathered information through direct contact with similar state-level agencies/associations. The Board of Directors studied the comparisons and then set the compensation for the SMCAA Executive Director. The Executive Director presented the Board with a recommendation for compensation of the Assistant Director and consultants in alignment with their duties and responsibilities.”

“All documents are available upon request through the SMCAA headquarters.”
