Nominees for the LMEA Board of Directors are due by December 31.
Any LMEA member may nominate themselves or another LMEA member for a position on the Board of Directors. To do so, please submit your nominations via the online link. The link can also be found on the LMEA website.
Before you nominate someone to any of the above positions, take into careful consideration the amount of time, effort, and dedication that is required of the position. All LMEA activities are totally managed by the Board of Directors, thus requiring a great deal of time, commitment, and collaboration from each of these positions. All-State Events and State/Regional Performance Assessments are especially demanding, and it is up to these Division Chairs, in conjunction with the Executive Director, Executive Officers, and District Directors, to ensure that all planning, record keeping, management, and supervision are handled accurately and on time.
As part of our by-laws (Section 3), the president-elect nominee must have served at least one two-year term of office on the LMEA Board of Directors. The President-Elect will serve two years in that capacity before advancing to the presidency for two years. The final two years of the 6-year commitment will be as the Immediate Past-President. Each of these two-year positions contains specific duties and requirements in leadership of the association.
As Past-President, I serve as Elections Committee Chair, and I encourage you to show your interest in LMEA through your participation in the election process.
