Executive Board

The ten-member Executive Board of the LEA is responsible for the management of the organization. The Board is the sole policy-making body of the LEA. It determines the annual dues, is responsible for negotiations with the School Committee, and has all power not expressly delegated to the Officers. The Board, through its actions, furthers these purposes of the organization: to promote ethical standards and professional practices among the membership, to enable its members to speak with a common voice on matters concerning the profession, and to promote the professional and educational interests of the membership in relations with the community.
