The Seneca Valley School District has joined the Learning 2025 network of demonstration systems, a collaborative network of districts aimed to help advance student-centered, equity-focused, future-driven education administered by AASA, The School Superintendents Association.
More than 60 districts nationwide have joined the network, Seneca Valley said.
The “demonstration systems” represent a collection of forward-leaning urban, suburban and rural districts serving as national models to help guide and reposition partner districts efficiently by sharing successful practices, successes and challenges.
“Seneca Valley is future-driven and focused on whole learning — not just test scores — and anti-marginalization, which ensures all students feel welcome,” said Tracy Vitale, Seneca Valley superintendent. “We look forward to working with other school districts from across the country to learn more about their strategic improvement efforts. In addition, our staff will be able to network with peers nationwide and share strategic ideas and winning solutions in our collective effort to strengthen our communities and raise student outcomes.”
A national commission of AASA recommended essential principles for school system redesign, which include the creation of demonstration districts.
As a demonstration system, Seneca Valley will, among other things, receive personalized engagement and strategic planning support, contribute to national research and gain a dashboard to track progress and provide data to the public.
