About Us
The Massachusetts Association of School Business Officials (MASBO) was established in 1957 and is a proud affiliate of the Association of School Business Officials, International (ASBO). We have grown substantially since inception, and our Pre-K through Post-Graduate public school members hail from municipal, regional, vocational/technical/agricultural, charter, and virtual schools and special education collaboratives from every corner of the Commonwealth.
MASBO members are key members of the district’s leadership team and hold themselves to the highest ethical and performance standards to focus resources on student achievement. They manage a wide variety of non-teaching and learning responsibilities, including budgeting, finance, accounting, and cash management; procurement; building planning, construction, maintenance, and operation; food and nutrition management; transportation services; personnel administration and collective bargaining; grant applications and reporting; risk management; technology and IT; and more. MASBO members work hand-in-glove with education professionals at the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) to adhere closely to the laws, regulations, and guidelines necessary to ensure compliance while supporting taxpayer confidence in the district’s administrative management.
