Based in West Sacramento, California, the California School Boards Association is a nonprofit organization that supports California's public education governance community. It represents nearly 1,000 PreK-12 school districts and county offices of education across the state. The association facilitates collaboration among board members and education leaders and offers governance development through events such as its Annual Education Conference and Trade Show. CSBA pursues policy and program initiatives, including the SOS for Student Achievement legislative package announced at the Capitol. It also forms partnerships to extend its impact, such as a 2026 collaboration with Keenan & Associates to provide tools and training for child abuse prevention across school communities. The organization disseminates resources for boards and superintendents, exemplified by the Back-to-School Digest launched to support governance teams at the start of the year.
