Marion Community Schools Board of School Trustees President Todd Nicholson has been recognized by the Indiana School Boards Association (ISBA) with an Exemplary Governance Award for calendar year 2023 for demonstrating an outstanding commitment to professional learning and student success.
The Exemplary Governance Awards (EGA) are conferred annually by the Indiana School Boards Association to school boards and school board members who have demonstrated an outstanding commitment to professional learning and student success.
President Nicholson was one of only 78 honorees statewide who were recognized at the Advanced Award level.
“On behalf of ISBA, I would like to commend this most exceptional group of school board members,” ISBA Executive Director Terry Spradlin said. “School boards perform a vital public service, and members who actively participate in professional learning are better equipped to perform their duties effectively.”
President Nicholson was recognized along with other honorees at ISBA’s Spring Regional Meetings.
“These individuals are leading the way as models who strive for effective school board governance, and they should be proud of their accomplishments,” ISBA President Rebecca Gardenour said.
ISBA provides a full range of professional learning opportunities to help board members govern effectively. At dozens of events throughout the year, ISBA informs and educates board members about best practices, legislative issues, policy development, school law, and more.
