Are you a new superintendent who has inherited a district that has a rocky relationship with its community? Maybe you are a seasoned district administrator who has witnessed the relationship between the board and community become stressed? Regardless of your situation, it’s a safe bet you have initiatives to accomplish and are wondering how to rebuild trust. Hear from one district’s team as they provide insight on their actions to rebuild communication and trust among the board, administrative team and community, and the results that followed. They'll share stories and discuss strategies, including an open and honest referendum campaign, that were critical to helping rebuild a frosty relationship.
