Any member of IHSPA may apply to serve as an officer on the Executive Board. The board, which meets about every four to six weeks, serves the membership through activities beneficial to scholastic journalism. The term of office is one year with the membership voting on this year's candidates during the annual meeting in January.

A nominating committee will present a slate of officers at the brunch based on applications received. If slated, members of the current board move up to the next position while new officers round-out positions and responsibilities.

To apply for a position on the board, simply fill out the application form below by the submission deadline, which is Jan. 20. To be eligible for a position on the board, an adviser must teach journalism or be involved with student publications at an IHSPA member school. Each member school may nominate one candidate for the adviser board.
