Superintendent Cindy Marten kicked off the day by emphasizing San Diego Unified’s commitment to continue to work hand in hand with our community to ensure that we are preparing students for success in the technology driven world of tomorrow.
It was especially exciting to include 10 High School students in the conversation. Students shared insights revealing the value of their in school, and out of school, work based learning experiences. The students were active participants and engaged the audience with authentic descriptions of what the future of education could look like. Equity ambassadors from the following schools were represented: Serra, San Diego, the MET, Mt. Everest Academy, SCPA, Morse, University City, and Clairemont High Schools.
Industry professionals collaborated with educators to identify the 21st century skills needed for gainful employment in San Diego’s Priority Workforce Sectors.
The significant turn out at this inaugural partnership meeting is an example of our communities dedication to, and support of, our schools. Together we will continue to develop programs and learning experiences worthy of our students, together we will make a #BetterSD.
