James Ruse, Superintendent of Gallatin R-5 District, will serve as the Northwest representative on the executive committee for the Missouri Association of School Administrators (MASA) during the 2003-2004 school year.
Mr. Ruse was selected by his colleagues in Northwest Missouri to serve in this leadership position.
MASA is a strong advocate for public education in Missouri. The organization lobbies intensely for additional education funds at the state Capitol. MASA also provides critical information to its membership regarding the status of legislation and other issues of interest to school administrators.
The organization offers a mentoring program for new superintendents, employs a staff attorney to provide legal assistance to school administrators, and offers conferences and workshops to provide administrators with the information they need to be effective leaders in their districts.
