K-12 Education Taxonomy

The WAND K-12 Education Taxonomy is specifically designed to help school districts tag and organize their unstructured information with relevant, specific concepts, processes, subjects, and document types. WAND created this taxonomy leveraging the domain experience of a former school board member who has a Master’s Degree in Library and Information Science. As with all our taxonomies, this strong foundation metadata model can be customized to include additional terms relating to your specific needs or industry. The WAND Online and In-Person Learning Taxonomy is the perfect companion for the WAND K-12 Education Taxonomy.

This taxonomy contains 828 terms and 367 synonyms. Top-level terms include:
• Academics (314)
• Activities and Athletics (68)
• Administration (58)
• Board of Education (12)
• Facilities (58)
• Fiscal Management (26)
• Personnel (65)
• Student Support Services (103)
• Support Services (115)

While one taxonomy is good, multiple taxonomies to address other areas of your business is better! Check out some of our curated recommendations for other taxonomies that pair well with the
