As legislators consider education policies, it is imperative that school board members, superintendents and treasurers tell legislators what their goals are, what their students need and how state-level decisions impact them. The 2026 State Legislative Conference is a golden opportunity to do just that. The morning session will equip district leaders with up-to-the-minute information to support their afternoon discussions with lawmakers. Attendees are encouraged to schedule office appointments with legislators starting at 1 p.m. Legislators will also be invited to join district leaders for lunch, fostering further dialogue on key education issues.
Event Venue: The State Legislative Conference will be held at the Athletic Club of Columbus located at 136 E Broad St, Columbus OH 43215 in the Gold Lounge. We recommend parking in the underground parking garage at the Ohio Statehouse located directly across the street from the facility.
Registrations must be made by noon Thursday March 19, 2026 to attend this event.
