| In order for Minnesota school administrators to have their own
monitoring board, the legislature required that MBSA be
self-supporting. Therefore, all school administrators must pay an
annual fee of $75. This amount is in addition to any
licensing/re-licensure fee and is payable to the Minnesota Board of
School Administrators. MBSA sends all school administrators a letter
informing them of this obligation. If MBSA were not
self-supporting, all its responsibilities would most likely revert back
to the Commissioner of Education. A school administrator does not join
the MBSA; rather, MBSA fulfills the above stated duties for all
Minnesota school administrators.
