I firmly believe that public education is the cornerstone of American society. It is what sets America apart from the rest of the world. Since Thomas Jefferson founded the nation's first public university, our excellence has always been connected to the success of our educational system, and it will continue to be so in the coming years.

—Kathy Cox, State Superintendent of Schools


Vision

We will lead the nation in improving student achievement.

Mission

It is the mission of the Department of Education to function as a service-oriented and policy-driven agency that meets the needs of local school systems as they go about the business of preparing all students for college or a career in a safe and drug-free environment where we ensure that no child is left behind.
