During her more than 25 years with the Virginia Department of Education (VDOE) and 35 total years in public education, Dr. Patricia I. Wright has worked closely with the Board of Education, governors, the General Assembly, local school systems and professional organizations to develop and implement Virginia’s standards-based accountability program and statewide system of support for public schools. Dr. Wright was appointed Virginia’s superintendent of public instruction by Governor Tim Kaine effective October 1, 2008, and was reappointed by Governor Bob McDonnell on April 16, 2010. During her tenure at the VDOE, Virginia has become an educational technology leader, committed to ensuring that all students and teachers in Virginia have the resources and tools they need to succeed in the 21st century. The Commonwealth has expanded and enriched its online learning opportunities, undertaken a number of initiatives to take advantage of interactive digital and open (OER) content and applications, moved the student assessment system online, built out a robust state data system, and demonstrated substantive leadership in helping schools keep students secure and safe while online.
