Working with school attorneys throughout the state, the Alliance is a powerful force taking school districts, county offices of education and ROP/Cs' side in the courts. In cases ranging from property tax administration fees to the special education mandated cost claim, the Alliance has proven highly effective, both saving and gaining schools literally millions of dollars and protecting the governance role of the board.
