Dear Slate Valley community, please consider attending one of the Agency of Education’s Listen and Learn Tour events. Your voice is critically important.

These public engagement sessions will help the Agency develop its strategic plan and ensure that its work is supporting the educational priorities of communities across Vermont.

The Agency encourages broad participation and welcomes input from all Vermonters, including students, families, and community partners - students are integral to these conversations and are encouraged to attend.
Each public engagement session will take place from 6:00 pm. to 8:00 pm at the below locations.
