Stay ahead in K-12 virtual learning while building your professional network with teachers, curriculum leaders, and administrators who understand the unique challenges of online and virtual education.
The Challenge Faced by K-12 Virtual Learning Professionals
Whether you’re teaching online, leading a virtual program, or supporting online educators, keeping up with virtual learning innovations is challenging. Managing virtual classrooms and programs requires specialized skills that traditional professional development rarely addresses.
- Finding trusted peers who understand your specific online classroom management and program leadership challenges
- Missing opportunities for professional development that actually applies to both virtual K-12 teaching and administration
- Lacking access to K-12 virtual learning mentors who've mastered online teaching and program management
- Making district-level decisions about virtual platforms and policies without peer guidance
- Supporting virtual teachers while staying current with online learning best practices yourself

Why cross-sector matters for virtual teaching:
While you may find K-12 professional education elsewhere, you won’t find communities focused specifically on online and virtual classroom programs. Corporate trainers have mastered engagement techniques for remote learners. Higher education has pioneered accessibility in online learning. Government programs have solved unique virtual delivery challenges. These insights can revolutionize your K-12 virtual classroom.

K-12 Virtual Educator Success Stories
“I appreciate the newness of ideas at the TxDLA Conference, such as the virtual classroom student-driven entrepreneurial project using computers as well as the AI building a bridge concept, where students would earn a badge or plank as a motivator (as they succeeded in units) so they eventually crossed over. It’s the almost prototypical thinking that I enjoy.”
— Caroline Parrish, K-12 Social Studies Teacher
“I had the opportunity to present a fishbowl session at the TxDLA Conference, which challenged me to grow as both an educator and collaborator. The experience was enriching and rewarding. I also valued attending a variety of conference sessions that exposed me to diverse educators and new ideas.”
— Muriel Eby, K-12 Secondary Elective – Lifetime Fitness and Wellness Pursuits
