State of the Commonwealth Analysis 2025

This thoughtful analysis guide was created by Renee Serrao, an award-winning government teacher at Cosby High School in Chesterfield County and valued member of VPAP's Civics Navigator Panel of Advisors. Drawing on her classroom expertise, Ms. Serrao designed this worksheet to help students engage critically with Virginia's annual State of the Commonwealth Address. The resource guides learners through tracking specific policy proposals, analyzing bipartisan support, and developing evidence-based arguments about the governor's agenda -- fostering both civic literacy and critical thinking skills.
