American Association of School

“Since 1865, school system leaders have joined the american association of school administrators (aasa) for professional support and development, information and news, networking, and representation at the federal level and to support the aasa mission to advance public education for all children. Aasa represents school district administrators at both the building and central office level. Aasa's primary members are public school district superintendents and those who aspire to that position. Aasa also includes college professors who are preparing school administrators.”

“For executive committee: any eligible aasa voting member may serve on the executive committee as an elected regional executive committee member.
