2026 Virginia General Assembly Session January 14 - March 14

VASSP Director of Government Relations and Lead Lobbyist Dr. David Ellena weekly compiles an update on key education bills for school principals and assistant principals. David's email is dellena@vassp.org.

His reports are posted regularly on the VASSP website (see Legislative Advocacy) when the General Assembly is in session.

As always, for every legislative session, VASSP will be on hand daily to bring our members the latest news on political actions that might impact middle and high school leaders.


Direct and frequent communications with your delegate and state senator as well as with each member of the House Education Committee and Senate Education and Health Committee is critical, especially during the legislative session. Your legislator needs to hear from you directly!
