UVA K-12 Advisory Council
What We Do
The UVA K12 Advisory Council was formed in 2001 as a way for the UVA School of Education and Human Development to establish coherent, sustained relationships with school districts that support the continuing professional development of the K12 education community. The model for these relationships incorporates job-embedded professional learning and examines the possibilities for co-creation of learning opportunities within the districts we serve.
Our Goals
The primary goals of the Council are to provide UVA/School of Education and Human Development with guidance regarding ways to support the K12 needs throughout Virginia; establish strategic partnerships among Council members, districts, statewide, and with leadership development consortia; share effective tools with one another; support our shared needs.
