Ethnic Studies and the State Seal of Civic Engagement have the capacity to build students' social consciousness as well as the civic knowledge and skills needed to address today's societal issues effectively and responsibly.
Equip yourself with the tools and strategies for all K-12 students to address controversial issues as responsible, civic-minded citizens, dedicated to strengthening our democracy. Plan for the immediate implementation of the tools presented during the upcoming school year.
Learn how your school can be recognized as a California Democracy School!
