WHITELAND, Ind. – The Clark-Pleasant Community School Corporation (CPCSC) announced Thursday that its School Board has been recognized by the Indiana School Boards Association (ISBA) with a 2023 Exemplary Governance Award (EGA) for an outstanding commitment to professional learning and student success.
The Exemplary Governance Awards (EGA) are conferred annually to school boards across four levels of distinction. Board awards are based on points earned by each member for attending ISBA seminars, workshops, conferences, and other learning events.
Other criteria, such as a retreat with an outside facilitator and goal setting to elevate student achievement outcomes are also factors. This year, 105 school boards are receiving awards through the EGA program.
ISBA Executive Director Terry Spradlin said, “School boards perform a vital public service for their communities, and board members who actively participate in professional learning are better equipped to perform their duties effectively and meet the needs of their students.”
The CPCSC School Board and the other honorees will be formally recognized during ISBA’s Spring Regional Meetings. In addition to the board-level awards, ISBA is presenting individual EGA awards to 270 school board members.
