Topics for upcoming 2021 Spring Division Virtual Meetings have been announced and are listed below. Meetings begin with the Illini Division on February 25, featuring a discussion about “Our Journey in Working to Create Education Equity in Unit 4.” Other gatherings will feature topics such as mental health first aid for students, the art of school boarding, and maximizing student learning during COVID.

These meetings will be virtual, because of restrictions to gatherings in place due to the coronavirus pandemic. The Candidate Briefings typically held during the spring of an odd-numbered year are separate, livestream events this year. See the IASB School Board Elections page for details.

Each of IASB's 21 divisions offers a meeting with a variety of topics and networking opportunities. Board members are encouraged to attend within their home division, but are welcome to attend outside their division if a timing or topic is more favorable. Refer to the chart below for a comprehensive list of division meeting dates, locations, and topics. Registration is free. To register for a Division Meeting, visit the IASB Events Calendar.
