The Education committee is happy to report on the many exciting projects:

 Wednesday, March 10, will be "Principal for a Day" in all of the Cabrillo schools, when people from the community will have the opportunity to see what it is really like to be in charge of a local school.
 Our Half Moon Bay Library has trained 18 high school students as tutors.
 A group, including HMBHS Principal Mary Streshley, is working on a program to help high school students develop the skills needed for 21st century jobs.
 Amee Godwin is the director of ISKME (Institute for the Study of Knowledge Management in Education), a nonprofit research group based in Princeton. ISKME is dedicated to advancing the ways teachers teach and students learn. Godwin spoke about the Big Ideas Fest 2009 last December, attended by a small group of representatives of the Cabrillo Unified School District. ISKME seeks to challenge and change the ways in which education can be relevant to learning in the post-industrial world. For more information, go to www.iskme.org
