Legislative decisions concerning the education and welfare of young people can best be made with informed input from stakeholders.
Training and communication are essential for organizational change and individual growth.
Education is a dynamic process with a commitment to make system changes to meet the evolving needs of society.
The federal and state governments and the Department of Education should provide adequate resources to support local school boards' responsibilities to their community.
