Serving Career and Technical Education Students in California Career and Technical Student Organizations Serving Career and Technical Education Students in California 1 Career and Technical Education (CTE) is helping our nation address key challenges such as workforce development, student achievement, economic vitality and global competitiveness. Career and Technical Student Organizations (CTSOs) are key components to strong CTE programs. CTSOs integrate into CTE programs and courses and extend teaching and learning through innovative programs, business and community partnerships and leadership experiences at the school, state and national levels. • CTSOs provide relevant, engaging programs that improve student achievement, reduce dropout rates and help students discover the wide range of career options available. • CTSOs engage the community and local businesses to help students understand global competition and chart effective and efficient pathways through high school and postsecondary education for their personal success. • CTSO programs, such as industry based competitive events and community service, provide students with the opportunity to develop 21st Century Skills focused on creativity, problem solving, teamwork and goal setting. • CTSOs bring relevance to the classroom and prepare students to be college and career ready. The impact that CTSOs make in our state is quite astonishing. We invite you to review this publication to see how Career and Technical Student Organizations are contributing to learning that works in our state. 2 California Fact Sheet CTE STATE OVERVIEW At the secondary level, CTE is delivered through comprehensive high schools; magnet programs and schools, which are programs in a school (sometimes an entire school itself) that focus on a special area such as science or career education; California Partnership Academies, which are schools-within-a-school that incorporate integrated academic and career and technical education, business partnerships, mentoring and internships; and Regional Occupational Centers and Programs (ROCPs). At the postsecondary and adult levels, courses are offered at ROCPs, adult schools, community colleges and through apprenticeship programs. ROCPs, a unique part of the California CTE system, provide career and workforce preparation for high school students and adults, preparation for advanced training and the upgrading of existing skills. Courses may be offered in a variety of places, from high school campuses to actual workplaces, such as hospitals. 1,001,255SECONDARY 1,051,699POSTSECONDARY 89% of CTE high school students graduated. 90% CAREER AND TECHNICAL STUDENT ORGANIZATIONS IN CALIFORNIA met performance goals for Career and Technical Student Organizations extend Career and Technical Education in California through networks of programs, business and community technical skills. partnerships and leadership experiences at the school, state and national levels.

  • Alameda, a Geographical History, by Imelda Merlin
    Alameda A Geographical History by Imelda Merlin Friends of the Alameda Free Library Alameda Museum Alameda, California 1 Copyright, 1977 Library of Congress Catalog Card Number: 77-73071 Cover picture: Fernside Oaks, Cohen Estate, ca. 1900. 2 FOREWORD My initial purpose in writing this book was to satisfy a partial requirement for a Master’s Degree in Geography from the University of California in Berkeley. But, fortunate is the student who enjoys the subject of his research. This slim volume is essentially the original manuscript, except for minor changes in the interest of greater accuracy, which was approved in 1964 by Drs. James Parsons, Gunther Barth and the late Carl Sauer. That it is being published now, perhaps as a response to a new awareness of and interest in our past, is due to the efforts of the “Friends of the Alameda Free Library” who have made a project of getting my thesis into print. I wish to thank the members of this organization and all others, whose continued interest and perseverance have made this publication possible. Imelda Merlin April, 1977 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The writer wishes to acknowledge her indebtedness to the many individuals and institutions who gave substantial assistance in assembling much of the material treated in this thesis. Particular thanks are due to Dr. Clarence J. Glacken for suggesting the topic. The writer also greatly appreciates the interest and support rendered by the staff of the Alameda Free Library, especially Mrs. Hendrine Kleinjan, reference librarian, and Mrs. Myrtle Richards, curator of the Alameda Historical Society. The Engineers’ and other departments at the Alameda City Hall supplied valuable maps an information on the historical development of the city.

The project will include improvements to passenger access and traffic flow at the “intermodal” (i.e. bus and drop off) area as well as the addition of special landscaping areas that will act as filters for any rain runoff to process out harmful materials (such as oil or gasoline, heavy metals, etc.) before the water goes into the storm drain system. BART will close the existing intermodal area and the Amtrak parking area at the Richmond BART station on Wednesday, April 15th. All buses, shuttles, paratransit, taxis, etc. will be relocated to other areas near the station. The work will be completed in September 2015. Below is a map which shows the new locations for services. Additionally, these maps are being distributed at the station. The new locations are as follows: 1. Kaiser Shuttle, Ford Pointe Shuttle and San Pablo Senior Transportation will move to the intersection of 15th Street and Nevin Plaza. All other paratransit services have been moved to El Cerrito del Norte Station. 2. AC Transit Bus Stops are moved to the north side of MacDonald Avenue east of 16th Street. 3.
