TDOE Student Engagement Council

December 17, 2024

Applications are now open for current 11th and 12th grade students to apply to join the Tennessee Department of Education (TDOE) Student Engagement Council. Engagement councils provide the TDOE with input, feedback, and recommendations on the implementation of strategic initiatives and programs. The councils have no legislative, administrative, or programmatic authority.

The Student Engagement Council meets virtually once a month to collaborate with the department to move our state and its students forward. Students will serve for a five-month term from January 2025 – May 2025. The first meeting will be held on January 30, 2025. All subsequent meetings will take place from 3:30-4:30 p.m. CT on the Thursdays of the second full week each month.

Current 11th-grade and 12th-grade students who are passionate about K-12 education in Tennessee are encouraged to apply.
