We are thrilled to announce the launch of the Virginia School Boards Association’s Public Education Campaign, centered around the slogan “Educate, Empower, Elevate.” This initiative is designed to amplify the vital role of public education in our communities, showcase the incredible work happening in our schools, and inspire a renewed commitment to the success of every student across the Commonwealth.
Through this initiative, we aim to:
- Educate the public about the value of public education and its impact on students, families, and communities.
- Empower educators, students, and communities by sharing their stories and highlighting innovative programs and initiatives from school divisions.
- Elevate the conversation around public education, advocating for policies and resources that ensure equitable opportunities for all students.
As part of this initiative, we will be sharing powerful narratives from across Virginia that demonstrate the lasting impact of public education. These stories will be featured on our website, social media, and in a publication in the next year.
We invite you to participate by submitting stories, programs, and initiatives from your school divisions that exemplify the theme of “Educate, Empower, Elevate.” Your contributions will help us paint a comprehensive picture of the successes and challenges in public education today and will be crucial in advocating for the needs of our students and educators.
In the coming weeks, we will include more information about how to get involved, including submission guidelines and key campaign dates. We look forward to working together to make this initiative a success and to ensuring that the voices of our educators, students, and communities are heard loud and clear.
