DURHAM EDUCATION ASSOCIATION

The mission of the Durham Education Association (DEA) is to assist local school districts in providing quality educational experiences for their students, staff, and communities. Through cooperative efforts, the DEA and member schools will design programs and opportunities that can better serve each district and their specific needs.

 

Guiding the Durham Education Association will be designated representatives from area school districts, universities and colleges, and educational support organizations. Two boards, one for elementary and one for secondary instruction, will meet every other month to advise, plan and promote educational opportunities available through the museum.
