The Florida Association of School Personnel Administrators is a taxpayer-funded lobbying association in Florida that is composed of school administrators who have roles and responsibilities associated with personnel operations, and college/university personnel who are responsible for teacher training and certification.[1]

An off-shoot group of the FASPA endorses candidates if it deems the candidate has shown "support for Florida's students and school personnel." [2]
