CEI Teams 2025-2026
CEI operates on a peer leading and learning model. All of our LEA participants form their own CEI teams that consist of educational partners, including county office of education representatives, district and school-site representatives, parents, students, and community members.
Participation in the CEI is a two-year commitment. Below you will find the list of the school districts, charter schools, and county offices of education who are currently leading and learning from each other, to build California’s list of best practices around community engagement, as well as those who helped build our initiative, but have completed their two-year commitment and are no longer actively participating.
