The San Diego County Office of Education’s (SDCOE) mission is to inspire and lead innovation in education. SDCOE aims to serve as an educational leader and trusted partner to transform public education and guarantee high levels of student achievement. In partnership with local school districts and the global learning community, we research and apply innovative 21st century practices; leverage resources; develop strategic alliances; inspire powerful leadership; and provide exemplary customized services to districts, communities, and the students in all SDCOE-operated programs.

Summary

Since 1995, SDCOE’s Science Outreach programs have been inspiring San Diego County youth, through hands-on programs, to become responsible stewards of their watershed and community. These programs connect with schools throughout the county. With each visit, our science educators work to enhance student knowledge on key environmental issues and system dynamics.
