Central San supports educators across Contra Costa county and beyond. We host an annual professional development series - the Summer Teacher Academy – at sites across our facility.
We also work collaboratively with local school districts during teacher release time for support and training. Those sites include:
– The Mt Diablo Unified School District
– The Lafayette Elementary School District
– The San Ramon Valley Unified School District
– The Contra Costa County Office of Education
In addition, Central San is a regular contributor to educator networks across California, including:
– The Water Education Committee hosted by the California Department of Water Resources (DWR)
– The California Environmental Education Interagency Network (CEEIN)
– The California Association of Science Educators (CASE)
– The Bay Area Water & Wastewater Workforce Reliability Network (BAYWORK)
