Vermont Council of Special Education Administrators: Fostering Educational Leadership for Over Four Decades

For over 44 years, the Vermont Council of Special Education Administrators (VCSEA) has been a cornerstone of educational leadership in Vermont. We are dedicated to supporting Special Education Administrators and other special education leaders, working in close collaboration with Superintendents, Principals, the Vermont Agency of Education, family support organizations, and numerous other state organizations.

Our commitment extends to staying at the forefront of legislative issues at both state and federal levels. Furthermore, our strong collaboration with the Council of Administrators of Special Educators (CASE), a subdivision of the Council for Exceptional Children, continuously broadens our perspective and keeps us informed on national trends.

At the core of our mission, the VCSEA strives to provide leadership, support, collegiality, and mentorship to all who teach and lead in education and special education across Vermont. We are honored to contribute to a state that deeply invests in the future of all its children.
