Local superintendent will be state association president
Clark-Shawnee Superintendent Debbie Finkes will be sworn in as the 40th president of the Buckeye Association of School Administrators Tuesday, Aug. 11.
BASA is the Ohio association representing education leadership and tackling topics like finance, issues, legislation and leadership.
As president, Finkes is among the leadership of a high profile education platform in the state. BASA frequently works with organizations like the Ohio School Boards Association or the Ohio Association for School Business Officials to champion causes and Finkes and other BASA representatives were invited to meet with Gov. Ted Strickland at the governor’s mansion not long ago to discuss his education reform proposals.
Finkes will be sworn in as president at 1 p.m. Tuesday at Shawnee High School.

Congratulations Deb. I know you will do a great job as President of BASA. There are a lot of challenges ahead of us in the state and we need your strong leadership to get our message to the Governor, State Legislation and the ODE.

Maybe she will finally retire and quit double dipping. Every year she tried to slip a new levy on the ballot…she’ll fit in well with the governor and his tax and spend policies.

Way to go DEB !!! Now, the next thing we need is you on the Board at STRS. Those idiots on there cannot seem to figure out a way to get reasonably priced health insurance like other states (Mass. and Minn.) as well as invest wisely and quit paying themselves BIG BONUSES!Anyway, CONGRATS !
