Joyce Donnell, a Lowell School Board member, was among eight locally elected board members recently recognized with a bronze award for completing course work through the Oregon School Boards Association’s Leadership Institute.
The awards, presented Nov. 12 at the association’s 70th annual convention in Portland, recognize board members for significant levels of achievement in leadership and development. There are four levels: bronze, silver, gold and platinum.
The association is a member services agency for more than 200 locally elected boards serving school districts, education service districts and community colleges. It also provides services to charter schools and their boards.
