KSB's 2026-27 Rookie and Refresher Series – Now Open for Registration!

Summer is winding down and the school supply displays are already looking picked-over.  It must be Administrators' Days week!  Tuesday will be a long day of…networking…or travel, and Wednesday and Thursday will be a blur of learning and more networking.

What’s crazy about this year is by the time you return from Admin Days and get your bearings straight, next Monday will be August 3. 

That means it's time to open registration for KSB's 2026-27 Rookie and Refresher Series — one of our most popular offerings, back again with three live strands built around what's actually happening in your building each month. Whether you're brand new to the job or just want a monthly gut-check on the legal issues heading your way, these sessions are short, practical, and built to be used in real time.

What's Being Offered This Year

We're running three strands for 2026-27:

Superintendents and Business Managers – Monthly sessions running from hiring and negotiations to contracts, FMLA/ADA, public records, and the FLSA quirks that never seem to go away.

Principals – A year-long walk through the calendar, from initial must-dos through evaluations, discipline, enrollment, and personnel decisions with hard deadlines attached.

Special Education Leaders – This year's series follows three contentious meetings — a chronically absent student's annual review, a disputed eligibility determination, and a manifestation determination review — each broken into before, during, and after.

Each strand runs monthly from September through June, live for 40-50 minutes, with registration covering the live webinar (or access via a recording on our portal) plus slides and materials.
