Top officials from the Virginia Department of Education recently received a briefing on Arlington schools from a local advocacy group.

Members of Arlington Parents for Education met with Virginia Superintendent of Public Instruction Lisa Coons and with Marcey Sorenson, the state government’s deputy superintendent of teaching and learning.

The meeting was a chance for both sides “to receive input, ideas and collective wisdom on moving the needle around student achievement,” Arlington Parents for Education said in a message to supporters.
