Congratulations to Andrew Moreno, ROP Environmental Horticulture instructor at the Alice Worsley School at the Juvenile Justice campus on being selected as as an FCSS "Above and Beyond" award recipient! Although Alice Worlsey staff could not have in-person instruction with their students since mid-March OR that horticulture was not an approved summer program Andrew never wavered from his devotion to his students. Despite being off the clock since May 26, Andrew has continu...ed to work every day to keep the garden at JJC alive and healthy. When asked why, Andrew gave a direct, yet modest response, This garden is for the kids to learn in. If I let it die, what do I have to teach with when we come back? That simple statement is a reminder of Andrew’s commitment to his students. Andrew, you not only provide marketable skills for your students but through your example you teach them to be good men and women. See more

"The Power of CTE - In Class or Online" is the theme for EFC 2021. The dates are February 28 - March 2, 2021. There will be an EFC conference - we just aren't ...sure what the format will be at this time. As we are all planning how & when to reopen schools this fall, the EFC committee is working with the Sacramento Convention Center, CDE, and conference hotels to determine what our options will be next spring. Depending upon how COVID-19 guidance changes over the coming months, we will adapt the event to fit within safe and healthy meeting protocols. Whether we remain an in-person event, move to a virtual event, or a blended conference, we look forward to providing quality professional development for the CTE community! See more
