NSPMA is a professional K-12 organization consisting of Facilities and Operational staff. These professionals  are the back bone to public educational institutions across the nation. The organization gives networking opportunities for small and large school districts alike. NSPMA is focused on providing the essential training for operational personnel to enhance their district for day to day operations to support the educational needs. Along with the collaboration, networking and educational classes provided by NSPMA  we also have a very strong base of national vendors to support district needs.
