The National Association of State Boards of Education (NASBE) is a nonprofit membership organization focused on state boards of education, with a mission to strengthen public education systems so students from diverse backgrounds can succeed. It operates as a nonpartisan body that elevates board members’ voices in policymaking and provides tools and technical assistance to advance equity and excellence. Based in Alexandria, Virginia, NASBE has served for more than six decades. NASBE supports its members through conferences, publications, webinars, trainings, and other events that help state boards set policy, convene stakeholders, and pursue informed decision-making. Its primary customers are the state boards of education and related policymakers seeking governance solutions to improve educational outcomes. In September 2024 NASBE launched the HSTSN in partnership with KnowledgeWorks to expand its work on innovative teaching and learning practices.
