The SCOE Math team invites you to participate in a county-wide Math Community of Practice funded by the California Math, Science, and Computer Science (CalMSCS)Grant. This is an opportunity for district leaders to learn about the topics shared at the State-wide Math CoP, connect with each other around hot topics (e.g., the 2023 Math Framework), adopt and implement TK-8 materials, and sustain high-quality instruction and assessments.

Expanding on last year’s theme or relationship-centered schools, the 2026 - 2027 SCOE SEL Community of Practice (CoP) will explore opportunities for deepening capacity-building and sustainability for SEL leadership and implementation. We will pull from emergent equity themes to guide our collaboration as we explore what it means to leverage SEL as a reset toward a beloved community. Community partner spotlights will enhance our knowledge-building, connections, and partnership opportunities.

A well-organized spreadsheet is easier to maintain, more accurate, and far more useful for reporting and decision-making. Whether you're creating your first spreadsheet or have been using them for years, a few simple habits can make your data easier to manage and less prone to errors. This session introduces beginner-friendly best practices for organizing, cleaning, and maintaining spreadsheets so they stay useful as they grow. You'll leave with practical tips you can start using right away to build spreadsheets that are easier to understand, update, and share.

Do you like receiving feedback? Do you enjoy providing it? Do you ask for it regularly? If your answer to any of those questions was "No!" join us to learn more about feedback and pick up a few tips and tricks on how to incorporate it into your professional and personal lives more intentionally.

This professional learning opportunity provides an introduction to systems thinking and its application in the workplace. Organizations achieve better results when people understand not only what is happening, but why it is happening. Through hands-on, experiential activities and real-world application, participants will connect systems thinking to their current work, gaining practical strategies for recognizing patterns, understanding interdependencies, and identifying opportunities for meaningful change. This series also serves as the foundation for those interested in continuing their learning leadership development using a systems approach.

This training contains 3 sessions over the fall semester. Please ensure you are able to attend all three dates prior to committing to the training.

Session 1: September 28, Session 2: October 26, Session 3: January 22

If these dates cause conflict, we invite you to view our spring semester options. 

**Those who register for fall semester 1 are only expect to attend the semester 1 dates.

This session goes beyond traditional time management tips to explore what it means to be productive—not just busy.

Through techniques like task management, time blocking, strategic calendaring, and productivity best practices, you'll discover how to take control of your workday, focus on what matters, and accomplish more with less stress.

Not all students who are struggling show obvious signs of distress. Anxiety, depression, and other internalizing disorders often go unnoticed, leaving students to silently cope with emotional challenges that affect their well-being and academic success. This session helps educators and school-based mental health professionals recognize the warning signs, understand effective assessment practices, and implement evidence-based interventions to identify, support, and connect students with the help they need.

The Capitol Area Regional Transformational Assistance Center (R-TAC) provides a virtual workshop series designed to foster a collaborative learning environment where participants engage in new learning while advancing their community schools implementation efforts. The network brings together site teams that are developing and demonstrating promising community schools practices, creating opportunities for shared learning, reflection, and collaboration across sites.

Participants identify and work through contextualized problems of practice informed by local needs and assets assessments, as well as qualitative and quantitative data. Through a year-long improvement process, site leads and their teams engage in focused learning, test solutions through short improvement cycles, and share strategies and lessons learned with peer cohorts aligned around similar goals and challenges.

These virtual sessions are intended for grantees who would like support with implementing components of their community school implementation plans.
