Register for the final 2025-26 Cohort:

Solano County educators (teachers and instructional leaders, TOSAs, instructional coaches, department chairs) are invited to explore more equitable learning environments to mitigate bias in the classroom. During this one-year program, K-12 educators will participate in a lesson study to learn more about addressing bias in the classroom and school environment and foster students’ sense of belonging.

This professional learning will emphasize equitable and engaging learning experiences in engineering, life science, and physical science with connections to academic opportunity and success.
