For Parents
It's a challenging time to be a teen -- and to be a teen's parent. This site is here to help by offering clear and accurate information on teens' responsibilities and rights under Virginia's law.
Welcome Parents!
Here is where you come to read what instructors are teaching and teens are learning. You can even view statistical reports of behavioral and criminal problems, broken down by school. But best of all, you can encourage positive character-building across the Commonwealth, simply by your interest in Virginia Rules.
