81st Annual CASB Convention 


We Have a New Schedule This Year!
Our Convention Kicks off on Thursday, December 2nd, With a Great Keynote Speaker!

Join CASB members for our 81st Annual Convention. We are looking forward to getting together - in person - for great general sessions, amazing breakout sessions, awesome networking opportunities, exhibitors that will blow your socks off, a wonderful Student Leadership program designed with the guidance of students, and much, much more. We didn't have the ability to be in person to celebrate 80 years of CASB, but we will be in person this year to celebrate 81 years of providing support and services to our 178 school boards across the great state of Colorado! 
We're Resilient, Ready, and Relentless in our pursuit of supporting you so that you can do your good work for our Colorado students!

CASB's 81st Annual Convention is 100% in-person. We are not offering a virtual component this year.
Convention materials will be available on our website to CASB members after the Convention.
