Crewe Primary School

Chapter 725 of the Code of Virginia requires the Viriginia Department of Education (the Department) to establish and oversee a Mathematics Advisory Task Force. The Task Force is charged with providing recommendations to improve mathematics education in elementary, middle, and high school.  The recent signing of Executive Order Four by the Governor reinforces the Commonwealth's focus on academic excellence and high-quality public education for all students. This directive closely aligns with the purpose of this Task Force and emphasizes the importance of ensuring our efforts are fully aligned with statewide priorities and expectations.  

There are currently 13 members on the Task Force. The Department is looking to expand its membership to incorporate a broader range of stakeholder perspectives and expertise in alignment with requirements in Executive Order 4 and Chapter 725.  

The stakeholder representatives for the Mathematics Advisory Task Force indicated in Chapter 725 are noted below. 

• K-12 Mathematics teachers 

• Mathematics coaches and instructional leaders 

• School administrators 

• Higher education 

• Parents 

• Business leaders 

• Division Superintendents 

• Division School Board members 

• Other stakeholders 

The Mathematics Advisory Task Force will meet monthly, beginning in April after selection of additional members in March 2026. All meetings will take place in Richmond or be hosted virtually.  

Educators, administrators, system leaders, advocates, associations, and community members are invited to submit applications for these positions. Applicants who speak a language other than English are encouraged to apply.  

Applications may be submitted by completing this form online or emailing the completed pdf application to vdoe.mathematics@doe.virginia.gov.
