Congratulations to the Class of 2025! Meet our student award winners and watch recordings of the School of Education's Doctoral Cording Ceremony and Graduation Celebration.
The School of Education prepares transformative leaders for a rapidly-changing world and educational landscape. Our faculty, students, alumni and partners are constantly working to create new knowledge in the fields of educational theory, practice and policy — then taking that research and developing meaningful ways to put it to work in classrooms and clinics.
We strive to provide an inclusive environment for our students, faculty and staff and to equip our graduates with the tools, knowledge and dispositions to serve as advocates and build just institutions in the field of education.
The School of Education currently sponsors or co-sponsors a number of special enrichment and outreach programs with direct impact on local, state and national communities. These activities provide model programs in direct service to children, adolescents, and their families, as well as technical assistance and professional development opportunities for educators in PreK-12, higher education, and agency settings. Project HOPE-Virginia, a statewide program for the education of children and youth experiencing homelessness, is currently highlighted because they recently launched a new website with expanded resources for students and families.
