The Annual Summer Law Institute sponsored by TSBA, in conjunction with the Tennessee Council of School Board Attorneys, is a two-day seminar held each summer for school board attorneys, board members and superintendents. We will be hosting two institutes, one in East Tennessee and the other in West Tennessee.

The two-day session includes a summary of case law affecting Tennessee public schools, an update on recent legislation, Attorney General opinions, and various legal issues related to education. This is a fee-based class.

Objectives:

• To review current legal and legislative issues
• To develop understanding and insight of these issues
• To discover implications for board members and school systems

Description:

Are you interested in the most up-to-date decisions regarding school cases in Tennessee as well as the rest of the nation? Do you want to know what laws were passed by the General Assembly in the last session? Then this training is for you! During this meeting participants are provided with a review of Tennessee and national school cases, the Attorney General Opinions, and new laws passed by the General Assembly.

Attendance at both days of a two-day event is required to receive one day of credit.
