The Colorado Council of School Board Attorneys (CCSBA) is composed of attorneys representing the 178 school districts throughout Colorado. The Council strives to provide a statewide forum for the discussion of practical legal problems facing local school districts and to promote the exchange of legal information and analysis among school attorneys. CCSBA offers a variety of continuing education programs, networking opportunities, and legal resources.

Primary Objectives

  • Identify current legal problems of concern to those who advise school boards
  • Disseminate legal information and analysis to members
  • Promote the exchange of legal information and analysis among members
  • Provide a state forum for the consideration of practical and professional problems faced by school attorneys
  • Promote a closer and more understanding relationship between school attorneys and their client school board members and the Colorado Association of School Boards

Events

CCSBA Monthly Roundtable Meetings

Connect with fellow Colorado charter school board members, share ideas and experiences, and learn from one another during these monthly informal roundtable discussions.

CCSBA offers monthly roundtable meetings to provide members with an opportunity to discuss legal and policy updates, recent litigation, and other timely governance and practice issues. Meetings are held virtually on Zoom from 12:00–1:00 p.m. and are open to all CCSBA members.
