Board names Nancy Bennett ACCBE representative
Summary
The board appointed Nancy Bennett as the Association of California County Boards of Education (ACCBE) representative after members described ACCBE's potential to amplify rural county voices; the motion passed unanimously.
The board discussed joining the Association of California County Boards of Education (ACCBE) and the value of county-level representation. One trustee said ACCBE gives counties an equal voice compared with statewide boards, and a trustee nominated Nancy to serve as the ACCBE liaison: "I nominate Nancy to be the ACCBE liaison," the trustee said. The motion was seconded and the board approved the appointment.
Members who had attended ACCBE meetings described early-stage organizing and a possible Sacramento event; trustees encouraged regular reports back to the board from the appointed representative. Nancy Bennett was confirmed as the MCOE ACCBE representative with unanimous support.
