Mission The mission of the Minnesota Association of School Administrators, an organization of visionary leaders, is to be the world-class change agent for education through membership empowerment and state of the art training, wth a commitment to quality and a focus on the individual and collective welfare of its members. History MASA was organized in 1907 as a professional association to represent the needs of school superintendents. In 1968, MASA was incorporated as a private non-profit 501(c)(6) organization with regional representation of its statewide membership. In 1986, MASA purchased its building at 1884 Como, a short distance from the State Capitol in St. Paul, to house the Association offices and provide a place for board meetings and small group committee meetings. As MASA grew and the profile of its members changed to include a more diverse representation of school leaders, the Association leadership recognized the need to restructure. 1996-97 kicked off the new MASA organizational structure, with leadership representation based on four component groups: superintendent, central office administrator, special education administrator, or service provider administrator. Members MASA members include over 600 public and non-public superintendents; directors of special education; other central office administrators; and service providers such as instructors or administrators of education administration training programs; Minnesota Department of Education staff; and education district and service cooperative leaders. |
