πŸ“… June is here! K-12 business/district offices are balancing (school) year-end responsibilities with planning for the one ahead. From contracts, letters of assurance and Educator Equity reporting to budget hearing prep, budget extensions and petty cash reconciliation, now is a great time to lean on WASBO's Business Manager Calendar to stay on track.

One week later and we’re still thinking about the energy, connection and memorable moments made at WASBO's 2026 Annual Conference! πŸ†

Over three days, school business champions from across Washington state came together to connect, learn, celebrate and support one another through every session, conversation, challenge and opportunity. Tacoma was definitely filled with school business champions ready to connect, grow and lead together.

The lights may be off and the buzzers may be quiet now but the impact of the connections and learning will continue on for many days/years ahead. Thank you to everyone who helped make this year’s conference another great experience for the WASBO community πŸ‘πŸ½

🎬 Enjoy a quick look back at some of the highlights from the week!

Thanks again WACA, for the invitation to connect, share ideas and learn alongside activity coordinators from across the state at your 2026 Conference! We appreciated the many conversations and collaborative moments that helped strengthen ASB programs in support of great experiences for students. It was a treat to connect with familiar faces (like fellow WASBO Member, Zena Dodson of Renton SD!) while also meeting many new ones along the way.

We hope everyone traveled safely to their communities, especially with the winter weather making everyone's journeys a little more adventurous this week!

If your learning sparked new questions or ideas, we hope to continue it again this fall at WASBO's ASB Workshops! Until then, thanks WACA for bringing everyone together πŸ«±πŸ½β€πŸ«²πŸ½
