Past Presidents Group

MOSPRA is fortunate to have several active members who are past presidents. These members are a wealth of both communications and association institutional knowledge. The Past Presidents Group (PPG) offers monthly "Office Hours" and members can join these online video calls to discuss best practices in school communications. The PPG also assists with welcoming new members and often serving as mentors through the Colleague Connections" program. The PPG members are also available for quick consultations should a member need to discuss a challenging or difficult situation related to their work.

  • Michelle Baumstark, Columbia
  • Erica Chandler, APR, Affton
