Dr. Shula and friends

A private award ceremony was held at the Bethel-Tate Board of Education Office Wednesday, April 26, 2023 and Board Member Dr. William Shula was the honoree.

CFO/Treasurer Karen Royer and Superintendent Melissa Kircher presented Dr. Shula with his 2023 OSBA Master Board Member Award. 

Dr. Shula is one of only five individuals to earn the Master Board Member Award in 2023 and the only board member in Southwest Ohio to receive the prestigious honor.

The newly updated Master Board Member status combines the elements of the STAR Awards Program: service, training, aptitude and recognition. All Master Board Members - whether earned through the STAR Award Program or earned previously - will be eligible to become members of the All-Ohio School Board, selected by his or her region's awards committee.

Please join us in congratulating Dr. Shula!
