School district leadership team named ‘Master Board’
The distinction of “Master Board” was awarded to the Lee County school district leadership team by the Florida School Boards Association at their 70th Annual Joint Conference, held Dec. 2 in Tampa. The Lee County school district is one of only 17 school districts in Florida to currently hold this prestigious award.
The Master Board Program is a voluntary program which provides opportunities for the leadership team (defined as the superintendent and the school board) to engage in training that enhances its capacity to provide visionary leadership for the school district. The Master Board Program concentrates on the leadership team’s governance roles for enhancing student achievement, fostering connections and empowering collaboration between schools and the community, and creating a learning organization to advance excellence in public education. The leadership team completed 22 hours of learning activities in a statewide
forum and onsite trainings to earn this distinction.
Members of the leadership team who completed the program are
Jeanne Dozier, Mary Fischer, Pamela LaRiviere, Cathleen O’Daniel
Morgan and Dr. Nancy Graham, Superintendent.
