2025-2026 Compliance Information
The School-Level BOB Compliance form must be completed and submitted by each school participating in any level of BOB competition each year. The school media coordinator must join or renew NCSLMA membership BEFORE being allowed to fill out this form.
The compliance form will appear as an event beginning October 1. You will need to "register" for the event to answer the compliance questions. You will not see the compliance form event if you are not a current member and logged in to your account. The event will remain open until Dec. 1. Here is a video that will help you find the form.
Beginning December 2nd, there will be a $25 late fee associated with this event. Please spread the word about getting the compliance form completed prior to December 1st to avoid the late fee. The deadline for payment is December 31st.
