| What is the School Administrators Alliance? |
The School Administrators Alliance (SAA) is a statewide organization established to provide four
associations of public school administrators with government relations services and a unified political
voice. The SAA is an alliance of:
- Association of Wisconsin School Administrators (AWSA)
- Wisconsin Association of School Business Officials (WASBO)
- Wisconsin Association of School District Administrators (WASDA)
- Wisconsin Council of Administrators of Special Services (WCASS)
As the combined government relations arm of these four associations, the SAA represents the interests of
Wisconsin school children and Wisconsin public schools before the State Legislature, the Office of the
Governor and the state agencies. The SAA supports legislation that improves Wisconsin public schools
and the quality of education for Wisconsin school children. The SAA actively participates with other
groups in addressing issues of mutual concern.

| History |
| The SAA was founded in 1991 when the Wisconsin Association of School District Administrators (WASDA) and
the Association of Wisconsin School Administrators Alliance (AWSA) joined their advocacy efforts. With the
addition of the Wisconsin Association of School Business Officials (WASBO) in 1992 and the Wisconsin Council
of Administrators of Special Services (WCASS) in 1994, the SAA has grown to represent more than 3,000
members – virtually every licensed school administrator in the state of Wisconsin. This diverse membership
provides a broad prospective and a deep understanding of educational issues.
