Cardinal Community School District board member Tom Drish was honored with an Individual Achievement Award through the IASB Annual Board Awards program. This award is given to individuals who dedicate time and effort to learning, advocacy, leadership, and service projects to expand their knowledge and skills for better governance.

IASB Board President Jim Green commended Drish for his hard work. “Learning and leadership truly makes a difference at the board table and for students. This group of award winners went the extra mile to ensure they are informed and capable as they strive to improve outcomes for students,” Green said.

This acclaimed award was presented to 112 school board and area education agency (AEA) board members. A full list of winners is available on the IASB website.

About the Annual Board Awards

Annual Board Awards highlight commitment to professional growth. Individual board members, board teams and superintendents/chief administrators/community college presidents can earn credits for these awards through participation in IASB learning opportunities, a desire to take on leadership roles and engagement in service and advocacy.

My real endorsement of Cardinal Schools and its faculty and staff can be seen each morning when I hand them the one irreplaceable and most valuable thing in my life: my kids. No letter I write could be a greater endorsement than that simple act. I give them my kids, and I do it with a huge smile on my face because I trust them to do what they are most outstanding at: building our future.
