NMSA Executive Director Resigns

The NMSA Board of Trustees announced that Executive Director Betty Edwards has resigned. Dr. Edwards worked to forge new relationships with business and organization partners, served on several national boards, and spoke at conferences and events throughout the United States. President Cathie Thibodeau commented that the board accepted her resignation and commended her for years of visionary leadership and progress.

Thibodeau appointed a transition team, led by Pete Lorain, to bridge the time between Dr. Edward's departure and the identification of a new executive director. A search committee chaired by Pete Lorain and Santo Pino is currently being formed and will identify the process of searching for the next leader of National Middle School Association. More information on the search for the next executive director will be forthcoming on this web page.
