TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – Rose Campbell, principal of kindergarten through 5th grade at Florida A&M University Developmental Research School (FAMU-DRS), was elected for a three-year term to the International Association of Laboratory and University Affiliated Schools (NALS) Board of Directors during a recent conference at Rhode Island College’s Laboratory School in Providence, RI.
As part of the board of directors, Campbell will have the opportunity to be exposed to other representatives of laboratory schools. She will also have an impact on policy and procedures, and how research and cutting edge strategies are used and being implemented at laboratory schools.
