Past Governing Board Meetings

Past Grounding Readings

What’s a grounding?

It is the practice of governing board members to dedicate time at most meetings to ground ourselves in the principles of the Agenda for Education in a Democracy, the ideals that guide the National Network for Educational Renewal (NNER) and the Wyoming School-University Partnership. The grounding is a reading, or an occasional video, selected to invite deeper thought about what we do, how we do it, and who we are, all in the context of a guided discussion. Board members see the opportunity as time to step back, slow down, and renew ourselves to meet challenges of demanding work. These materials are designed to be easily shared with others, including school district trustees and leadership teams, in print or digital formats.  See the complete list of groundings, archived since 2005.
