Subject: RE: student board member?
After listening to the excellent speaker on the topic of youth on historical society boards, our organizations is considering this. We are going to contact three history teachers at a local college for input. Any ideas/information would be greatly appreciated.

Subject: student board member?
Hello everyone.
I'm looking to communicate with agencies/museums that have a seat on their board of directors that is specifically for a high school/student member. My Board of Trustees is interested in the idea of having a seat for a student so that young people would have more of a buy-in with our organization.
Specifically, we are interested in the following:
--should we start with a student that is a sophomore, so that they can grow into the position over the next couple of years, or a senior who has more maturity?
--what specific roles/tasks/duties does your student board member have? How do they directly contribute to your organization through the board?
--how do you select your student board member when you have more than one high school in the area you represent (ie. a county historical society)?
--do you open it up to public, private, and homeschool high school students? Again, how do you solicit "candidates" when you have multiple schools?
Thank you for any insight you can provide on this subject.
