The Montana School Boards Association has voted to leave the National School Boards Association in June 2022 saying the organization has lost its focus in supporting local school boards offering professional development and advocating for quality education. Tuesday, Executive Director Lance Melton said the final straw was a letter written by the interim CEO and NSBA president in September asking President Joe Biden for federal law enforcement assistance to deal with threats of violence and intimidation over COVID-19 requirements at schools. According to Melton the letter was written without the knowledge of other officers senior staff its directors or state organizations.
