Burlington School District curriculum director appointed to Education Quality Standards Commission

Stephanie Phillips, Curriculum Director for the Burlington School District, has been appointed by The Vermont State Board of Education (SBE) to serve on the Education Quality Standards (EQS) Commission, comprised of Vermont education leaders tasked with recommending a state policy framework. This Commission will build off the work started in 2009 by the Education Transformation Policy Commission.

The Board also endorsed the work of the Vermont Superintendents Association (VSA) Task Force, describing a clear vision for public education in Vermont. The result is a simple explanation of a most important goal - that Vermont’s public education system provides a meaningful and rigorous experience for every child over his/her entire school experience.
