School board president Mark Scully receives awardBoard President is a master!

Congratulations to Board of Education President Mark Scully on receiving the New York State School Boards Association's (NYSSBA) Master of Boardsmanship Award. This award is the highest honor that a board member can receive through NYSSBA's Leadership Development Recognition Program, which is designed to acknowledge the extensive time and effort required of school board members who strive continually to expand their governance knowledge and skills. In order to earn this award, an individual must complete all eight School Board Institute Courses and achieve at least 200 points through NYSSBA developmental events and activities.

 

"This is our highest honor and one that is earned by very few board members, " said Lynne Lenhardt, NYSSBA Area 7 Director, who is also an active member of the Bethlehem School District's Board of Education, the Capital Region BOCES Board of Education and the Tech Valley High School operating board. Lenhardt took a night out of her busy schedule to be on hand to present Scully's award personally.

Aside from a very nice certificate, Mr. Scully also received free registration to next year's NYSSBA Annual Convention, a commemorative medallion and a "Mastery Award" lapel pin.

Congratulations Mr. Scully!
