The Library of Congress Teaching with Primary Sources Northern Virginia Partnership (TPSNVA) began in 2003 with an Adventure of the American Mind program including Arlington Public Schools, Alexandria City Public Schools, and Falls Church City Public Schools. Fairfax County Public Schools joined the partnership in 2004.

The TPSNVA program is a professional development program designed by school personnel in an effort to promote student learning while advancing current local school district pedagogy initiatives. Each school in the original partner school districts will have an opportunity for school-based professional development and the district department of Instruction will have opportunities for district-wide professional development. For additional information, read the TPSNVA Strategic Plan.
