Yearly Events
CICC Education Fair:
The department hosts a college education fair annually in the first week of August. Surrounding colleges are invited to come and show what they offer in academics, sports, and career choices.
Summer Session:
Every summer, the Education Department provides a four-week summer session program in June. Our program focuses on a 1st through 12th grade curriculum, based on the California Standards, specializing in Language Arts, Math, Science, Life Skills Education, and Physical Fitness.
Our Goals
- Provide assistance for students with all subjects
- Present different learning techniques to children (not all children learn the same way or the same phase).
- Provide a safe learning environment
- Meet with parents with updated progress for both tutoring and school
- Encourage and assist high school students with college and career planning
- To provide varying learning techniques that may be used throughout the course of the year, so that all students are given the opportunity to succeed.
- As Liaisons, we must be facilitators of discussion through productive questioning and support of student’s own ideas, continually learning from them while encouraging them to learn from one another.
