Summary: Delegates set the general policy direction and fulfill a critical governance role within the association. They communicate the interests of local boards to CSBA's Board of Directors, Executive Committee and staff. Delegates give policy and legislative direction through the adoption of the policy platform every two years and the adoption of other policy statements as needed. They also speak on issues and provide direct advocacy on behalf of the association.

There are nine (9) vacancies in our area (Sub-region 16-B) which need to be filled. CSBA Delegates will serve two-year terms. Those elected in 2020 will serve beginning April 1, 2020 through March 31, 2022. There are two Delegate Assembly meetings each year.

Any CSBA member board is eligible to nominate board members within their geographical region or sub-region. Each board may nominate as many individuals as it chooses. CSBA is accepting nominations through January 7, 2020. Those nominated must submit a biographical sketch and optional resume by this date.
Funding: Travel expenses associated with Delegate Assembly meetings will be incurred by the district.
Recommendation: It is recommended that the Governing Board nominate Board members within our geographic sub-region (16-B-San Bernardino) who may be willing to serve on the CSBA Delegate Assembly for a two-year term. Nominees are as follows: Christina Cameron-Otero (Needles USD), Barbara Dew (Victor Valley Union HSD), Cindy Gardner (Rim of the World USD), Margaret Hill (San Bernardino City USD), James O"Neill (Redlands USD), Wilson So (Apple Valley USD), and Henry J.
