IASB Now Accepting Resolutions for Consideration 

The 2025 IASB Resolution Submission Form is now available. Association member districts can submit a new resolution or an amendment to a current IASB Position Statement to be considered by the Resolutions Committee in August. All resolutions must be approved by the submitting district’s board of education prior to submission. 

The IASB Resolutions Committee has three options when considering resolutions: Do Adopt, Do Not Adopt, or Do Not Present. A “Do Adopt” recommendation is taken to the Delegate Assembly floor for a vote. “Do Not Adopt” recommendations do not proceed to the Delegate Assembly unless the submitting member files a timely appeal. If the Committee votes to "Do Not Present," the resolution does not move forward and is not subject to appeal. 

After the Committee makes its recommendations, a Resolutions Committee Report will be sent to IASB member districts in September. The Report includes all submitted resolutions, the submitting district’s rationale, and the Committee’s recommendation for each proposal. 

Resolutions that receive a “Do Adopt” recommendation or where an appeal is submitted will be presented for a vote before the IASB Delegate Assembly in November at the Joint Annual Conference. Resolutions approved by the Delegate Assembly become IASB Position Statements that provide the Association with direction on legislative issues. 

The deadline for districts to submit resolutions is June 25. Questions about the IASB Resolutions Process should be directed to the Governmental Relations team.
