Magna Awards
Welcome to American School Board Journal’s Magna Awards sponsored by Sodexo School Services. Over the past 15 years, we’ve featured many excellent examples of school district leadership, and this year is no exception. Again, we found common threads running through many of the winning programs: community, collaboration, and partnership.
Thank you for your interest in Magna. The 2009 Magna Award submission period is now closed. Good luck to all who entered!
