VBPS Office of Instruction
The Office of Instruction oversees the facilitation of the curriculum, instruction, and assessment. We support school improvement initiatives and the North Central Accreditation (NCA) process. The department coordinates the development and implementation of the Pre-K through 12th-grade curriculum, coordination, and analysis of student assessment programs, the purchase of textbooks, the instructional materials selection and the coordination of professional development opportunities.
