Passionate and dedicated, ASBA offers a provincial voice to school boards—a say in the future of education in our province.
In doing so, we open the doors to diversity, giving families more opportunities to connect with a world-class education system that meets the needs of their children.
We bring together guidance, expertise and advocacy– always listening to concerns and needs and presenting a balanced viewpoint. Everything we do, we do with one thing in mind –
To promote and serve member boards in supporting student success.
