Every issue of Quality Quick Takes has a theme that focuses on methods and actions school leaders can take to promote achievement and success for all students. Sections of the bulletin support the theme from the latest research in the field and opportunities to nominate a colleague that epitomizes the theme. Additionally, other updates from related VDOE departments are posted in the OSQ Quality Quick Takes to assist in further instructional growth and learning opportunities.
