K-12 Outreach

K-12 Outreach - Anaheim Union High School District (AUHSD) Opportunity


The ASCE Orange County Branch K-12 Outreach Committee is partnering with the Anaheim Union High School District (AUHSD) to provide mentoring to a select group of teachers regarding civil engineering.  In collaboration with Chapman University, AUHSD has obtained a grant to train teachers for a the next generation science standards, where classes will have projects to emphasis lessons learned in life sciences, earth sciences, chemistry, and physics. 

We are looking for 8 to 10 members of the ASCE Orange County Branch to participate in the program.  The concept behind the mentoring is for ASCE members to be a resource for up to 5 teachers each regarding questions on civil engineering related items students may be interested in. The plan is to minimize the time of the ASCE members to 3 to 4 visits during the school year.  The ASCE Orange County Branch K-12 Outreach Committee is planning to work closely with mentors to provide the support they will need.

If you are interested in participating in the program, please contact Gary Gilbert gary@diazyourman.com.
