The National Association of State Boards of Education (NASBE) is dedicated to advancing equity and excellence in public education. As the only organization solely focused on helping state boards, NASBE assists its members in shaping education policy in various state contexts. With a range of membership benefits and resources, NASBE provides opportunities for state board members to collaborate and address key policy areas such as college, career, and civic readiness, education governance, safe and healthy schools, and teachers and leaders.

NASBE's publications, designed in consultation with state board members, offer concise and accessible insights into challenges facing public schools, underlying research, and state policy innovations. Additionally, NASBE hosts annual conferences, legislative conferences, and webinars that provide ample networking and learning opportunities for state board members. These events feature expert speakers who cover topics important to state boards and promote conversation around education policies.

Through its work, NASBE aims to develop, support, and empower citizen leaders on state boards of education, ensuring that students from all backgrounds are prepared for success in school, work, and life
