K12 Subgroup

K12 Educational Materials: Content Review and Repository Recommendations 

Project Team Lead(s): Oscar Aliaga, Ed Mondragon, Davina Pruitt-Mentle, Tamara Shoemaker

1. Project Team Purpose 

Collect and review K12 educational materials that can be used to inspire cybersecurity career awareness 

with students in elementary school, stimulate cybersecurity career exploration in middle school, and 

enable cybersecurity career preparedness in high school. This project helps address Recommendation 3.5 

in Report to the President on Growing and Sustaining the Nation’s Cybersecurity Workforce calling for the 

establishment of a clearinghouse of information on cybersecurity workforce development education, 

training, and development programs and initiatives. The clearinghouse, which would serve the public and 

private sectors, should include knowledge from allies and the wider global community and address: 

• New and existing government programs and initiatives, such as research, pilot programs and 

grants, for the purposes of collaboration, information sharing, and efficient resource 

management; and

• Private sector education and training offerings that will provide employers, students, and 

transitioning workers information on content, quality, cost, and the types of financial assistance 

available. 

This project focuses on the K12 educational content and resources.

2. Project Team Objectives

Increased awareness and use of high quality K12 cybersecurity educational resources inspire cybersecurity 

career awareness with students in elementary school, stimulate cybersecurity career exploration in 

middle school, and enable cybersecurity career preparedness in high school. Connection between the 

NICE Workforce Framework and other nationally recognized K12 standards will aid in adoption of highquality instructional materials and promote future high-quality design of instructional materials.

3. Project Team Deliverables

Deliverables proposed for this effort include:

• Curation of known K12 educational resources. Identify and document K12 educational resources 

to include curriculum, online courses, interactives, videos, games, lesson plans, lesson seeds, 

micro lessons, teacher guides, study activities, hands-on activities, and E-books/resources.

• Cross mapping NICE Workforce Framework and other nationally recognized K12 standards

• Development of rubric for content analysis and standardization process for K-12 content

• Resource page or searchable database of high quality K12 cybersecurity educational resources.

UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS

FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

No. 21-1750

In re: WILLIAM SCOTT DAVIS, JR.,

Petitioner.

On Petition for Writ of Mandamus. (5:14-cr-00240-BR-1)

Submitted: January 20, 2022 Decided: January 24, 2022

Before WILKINSON, DIAZ, and THACKER, Circuit Judges.

Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.

William Scott Davis, Jr., Petitioner Pro Se. 

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

PER CURIAM:

William Scott Davis, Jr., petitions for a writ of mandamus, seeking a new trial 

related to his criminal convictions and alleging fraud on the court in two long-closed civil 

cases. We conclude that Davis is not entitled to mandamus relief.

Mandamus relief is a drastic remedy and should be used only in extraordinary 

circumstances. Cheney v. U.S. Dist. Ct., 542 U.S. 367, 380 (2004); In re Murphy-Brown, 

LLC, 907 F.3d 788, 795 (4th Cir. 2018). Further, mandamus relief is available only when 

the petitioner has a clear right to the relief sought. Murphy-Brown, 907 F.3d at 795. 

Mandamus may not be used as a substitute for appeal. In re Lockheed Martin Corp., 503 

F.3d 351, 353 (4th Cir. 2007).

The relief sought by Davis is not available by way of mandamus—he may not use 

mandamus to challenge his criminal convictions or to evade prefiling injunctions entered 

by this court and the district court. Accordingly, we deny the petition for a writ of 

mandamus. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are 

adequately presented in the materials before this court and argument would not aid the 

decisional process.

PETITION DENIED
