Expanded Learning Program Jobs in Richmond, VA (NOW HIRING)

2026-2027 Virtual Virginia Job Description

Position Title: School Support Coordinator

Summary

The School Support Coordinator is the primary contact and strategic liaison for Virtual Virginia ("VVA") programs and division or school-level stakeholders. In the 2026 educational landscape, the coordinator acts as a high-level consultant, providing school division leaders with the strategic vision, personalized planning, and collaborative leadership necessary to align VVA's K12 Instruction, Summer Session, Professional Learning, and Statewide LMS/Outreach programs.

This individual works directly with public school superintendents, central office administrators, and building leaders to customize local educational frameworks. Recognizing that each school division maintains complete local autonomy and control over its programming, policies, and instructional models, the coordinator acts as a collaborative partner. Through focused leadership meetings, the coordinator helps divisions scale, enrich, and manage their own local full-time and part-time virtual learning offeringsleveraging VVA's comprehensive infrastructure to supplement and strengthen local programming while respecting local decision-making authority. This work helps make school divisions stronger, more resilient, and more competitive in their regions and in any upcoming updates or revisions to the state accountability rankings (SPSF).

Essential Duties and Responsibilities

The coordinator serves as a key liaison to facilitate the effective adoption and integration of VVA programs, directly supporting Virginia public school divisions through the following duties:

• Division Partnership & Executive Consultation: Develops and sustains deep, trust-based professional relationships with Virginia public school superintendents, directors of instruction, and central office staff. Conducts targeted, high-level meetings with leadership that honor local autonomy, positioning VVA as an essential asset designed to expand local operational capacity and institutional strength.
• Personalized Division Planning: Collaborates one-on-one with local leadership to build customized implementation blueprints tailored to each division's unique staffing challenges, demographic needs, and local programming choices. Ensures VVA resources explicitly address and reinforce local strategic goals rather than replacing them.
• Expanding Local Full-Time & Part-Time Offerings: Works actively with divisions to design, expand, and manage their own local full-time options (e.g., Virtual Academies) and part-time scheduling solutions. Empowers divisions to leverage VVA course architecture to retain their Average Daily Membership (ADM) and provide flexible paths for diverse student populations while maintaining full local control over graduation tracks.
• SPSF Alignment & Accountability Optimization: Continuously assesses the instructional and operational vulnerabilities of school divisions. Maps VVA programs directly to local needs, showing how strategic enrollment translates into measurable improvements across SPSF mastery, growth, and graduation categories without compromising local division policy control.
• 3E Readiness Framework Integration: Supports school divisions in implementing advanced VVA courses (including Advanced Placement, dual enrollment, and high-value CTE pathways) to maximize division performance points under the state's 3E Readiness framework (Enrollment, Employment, and Enlistment).
• Strategic Summer Session Leadership: Promotes the VVA Summer Session as a vital component of a division's year-round academic continuity strategy. Demonstrates how summer acceleration and credit recovery options keep full-time and part-time learners on track for graduation, mitigating learning loss and supporting local accountability indicators during the off-season.
• VVA SIS Registration & Onboarding Support: Acts as the principal coordinator and mentor for division-level personnel navigating VVA spaces. Because local division SIS platforms do not integrate with VVA, the coordinator provides technical guidance and develops training sessions to ensure local personnel are proficient in manual student onboarding, registration queues, and data tracking.
• Assessment & Mastery Readiness: Partners with school leaders to leverage VVA course design in strengthening student readiness for Virginia's updated assessment environments, focusing heavily on mastery-based progress tracking and access.
• Division Needs and Utilization Cataloging: Maintains a comprehensive, analytical catalog of each division's instructional priorities, enrollment history, and strategic goals. Uses these engagement metrics to provide customized, data-driven programmatic recommendations to both division leaders and VVA leadership and support teams.
• Professional Learning Coordination: Coordinates with the VVA Professional Learning Program to design and implement professional development and training. Equips local division mentors, counselors, and virtual coordinators with best practices for supporting digital learners locally.
• Strategic Reporting & Change Management: Delivers targeted onsite/online training, distributes impact reports regarding VVA performance trends, and supports local leadership through the change management processes necessary to embed hybrid and virtual models securely within traditional school systems.
• Division Invoicing & Administrative Stewardship: Serves as a vital coordination link for division-level financial tracking; assists school business offices and leaders with VVA enrollment invoicing queries, payment processes, and enrollment verifications to ensure seamless operational support for division needs.

Qualifications

• Leadership Experience: 7+ years of school division or state leadership experience in education, program management, or systemic program implementation.
• Strategic Planning: Documented experience developing personalized academic or operational plans for school divisions, individual schools, and innovative programming.
• Mastery of Frameworks: Deep functional understanding of the 2026 and beyond SPSF accountability model, the 3E Readiness Framework, and current Virginia assessment realities.
• Technical & Operational Agility: Experience managing or training others on LMS and SIS platforms (specifically report generation, record-keeping, and student data tracking within the VVA SIS environment), alongside an understanding of K12 educational technology delivery.
• Communication: Exceptional persuasive writing and verbal skills; ability to confidently present complex programmatic data and strategic options to Superintendents, School Boards, and senior administrators.
• Interpersonal Skills: Natural relationship builder who excels at moving stakeholder dynamics from transactional interactions to collaborative, long-term partnerships that respect local division autonomy.

Education and Experience

• Required: M.Ed., Doctorate, or other advanced degree in Education or Educational Leadership.
• Required: Current license issued by the Virginia Department of Education (VDOE) with an endorsement in Administration and Supervision K12.
• Required: Minimum 5 years of experience in K12 education settings, with at least 3 years of experience directly managing or delivering online instruction or virtual program administration. 

Language & Mathematical Skills

• Ability to read, analyze, and interpret complex educational journals, financial reports, and VDOE regulatory documents.
• Ability to apply mathematical concepts such as probability, statistical inference, percentages, and ratios to real-world data (e.g., evaluating student growth percentiles and local division SPSF impact charts).

• Current VDOE license with an endorsement in Administration and Supervision K12.

Evaluation: Performance will be evaluated in accordance with Virtual Virginia policies and a timeline of evaluation of all program administration and support personnel. The evaluation structure heavily weights the coordinator's success in expanding local full-time/part-time program capacity while honoring local autonomy, division leadership engagement indicators, student onboarding efficiency via the VVA SIS, and the strategic improvement of partner division outcomes (e.g. within the SPSF).
