Yes, U of Virginia, there is some past coverage

Don’t think too hard about the headline on this post. I was trying to be clever and it ended up being kind of weird. You probably get the reference. If you don’t, here.

This week, I’ve written two stories about the Public Education Department’s budget requests for the coming legislative session. One is an overview of the request, and the other takes a more detailed look at the PED’s plans for turning around schools that received “D” or “F” grades under the new school grading system.

A key part of that plan involves training principals and administrators through the University of Virginia’s education leadership program. I didn’t go into much depth in Tuesday’s story about what the University of Virginia program entails, but I did write about the program in depth back in October. So if you’re interested in what the PED plans to invest in, check it out. I also blogged about the story at the time.
