Dear Education Family and Supporters:
Student Achievement is the number one focus of the Department of Education and we all have a stake to play in it.
Whether your profession is in the classroom, the lunchroom or the boardroom, we must all join forces to ensure our students are learning and thriving.
Let us make a renewed commitment to the achievement of all Virgin Islands’ students--this is what the Department of Education has been mandated to do. I believe that with our persistence and dedication, and with our hearts and hands united as one we will attain our goals of producing well-prepared students to meet 21st Century demands, generating higher test scores, and developing tomorrow’s leaders to their fullest potential.
Indeed, we are transforming public education through teamwork!
Yours in Service,
Sharon Ann McCollum, Ph.D.
Commissioner
