About NCSA

General Information - NCSA

The Nebraska Council of School Administrators is an organization of more than 1,900 school administrators who serve in Nebraska schools. We consider ourselves a partner in developing excellence in educational leadership, providing the "tools" necessary for administrators to be successful. Although school administrators are more aware of problem areas in schools than anyone else, their voices can be drowned out by special interests in politics. NCSA provides strength in numbers to make our voices heard in educational matters in Nebraska.

How is NCSA Governed?

The NCSA Executive Board consists of fifteen representatives, three from each active affiliate, and one NARSA representative. Members are elected by their affiliate and serve a three-year term on the Executive Board. The Executive Board annually selects a chairperson from its ranks to direct the work of the Board and represent NCSA.

NCSA Mission Statement

The mission of the Nebraska Council of School Administrators is to be a leader for quality education that results in learning for all children/youth and to enhance the professionalism of its members.
