In the 17 years he has served on the Elk Mound school board, Tim has served the last 11 as president. During this time, the board has been actively engaged in development activities to improve its effectiveness in boardsmanship, community engagement, and increased student achievement. In that effort, the Elk Mound board members have worked with the WASB on a plan that includes two weekends per year in which they reflect on their goals through self evaluation, data information, and set new goals. In addition, the Elk Mound Area School District has made a five-year commitment to a research project related to the board’s effect on student achievement.
