This draft proposal is, then, submitted to the MASA membership for approval during the business meeting at the MASA Spring Conference. When the proposed resolutions have been completed, they will be posted on this page. When the proposed resolutions have been adopted by the MASA membership they will replace the proposed version. The mission of the Missouri Association of School Administrators is to promote the public interest in education through effective leadership for learning. Free public education is essential to the preservation of freedom in a democratic society and should be accessible to all regardless of race, color, religion, national origin, sex, handicapping condition, or economic status.
Education is a major force in solving problems and achieving personal growth.
Citizen involvement is essential to the well-being of public education. The autonomy of the local boards of education should be preserved. Salaries and working conditions in public education should be designed to attract and retain individuals of the highest personal and professional qualities. The goals of education can best be achieved with the home, school, and community working together. Each individual must accept the responsibilities accompanying those privileges accorded through public education.
