The voice of California school business | January 2025

In this issue: The Bottom Line | Volunteer | Fund IDEA | Immigrant Student Resources | Workshops | Women In Leadership | Hot Jobs | SBA | Holiday Photos

Dear Member,

As 2024 comes to a close, I’m reflecting on the progress we’ve made together to move education forward.

This year has been one of growth and momentum—for school business professionals, students, and communities. Through professional development, advocacy, and tools like The Bottom Line, we’ve supported you in educating your boards, communities, and legislature, building understanding when education needs it most.

As you enter the new year, I hope you find time to rest and reflect, surrounded by those who matter most. Thank you for your hard work, passion, and dedication to this mission. We’re proud to stand with you and look forward to all we’ll achieve together in the year ahead.

From all of us at CASBO, happy holidays and a joyful new year.

Warmest wishes,

Tatia Davenport
CASBO CEO
