28th Annual VSBA Showcases for Success Directory
Charlottesville, VA–The Virginia School Boards Association (VSBA) has released its 28th annual VSBA Showcases for Success directory, highlighting successful K-12 programs in Virginia’s public schools. With an open exchange of ideas and implementation of best practices, together we can work toward the ultimate goal of success for all students.
“In addition to highlighting some of the best practices taking place in Virginia’s schools, the VSBA Showcases for Success directory can serve as a starting point to develop similar programs in other school divisions,” said Gina G. Patterson, VSBA executive director, “It is important to highlight the innovative and top of the line programs that Virginia Public Schools have to offer, and the VSBA Showcases for Success directory illustrates that there are excellent programs and initiatives taking place in Virginia’s public schools.”
In addition to the directory, the VSBA has created a Special Edition Newsletter featuring 12 of these programs, representing each region of the Commonwealth. The following counties and cities are featured: Amherst County, Danville City, Frederick County, Galax County, Henrico County, King & Queen County, Madison County, Prince William County, Pulaski County, Roanoke County, Stafford County, and Virginia Beach City. This newsletter can be viewed here.
The directory is available on the VSBA web site at www.vsba.org/showcases. A total of 92 programs from 43 school divisions from across Virginia are included.
