Cal Teach embodies UC Santa Cruz’s commitment to improving K-12 science and math education. In California, only 35% of high school graduates are prepared for college-level science classes. Cal Teach addresses this problem by placing university science, math, and engineering majors in K-12 classrooms and helps many of these Cal Teach interns go on to become teachers. As a result, school children benefit from innovative and engaged teachers who are committed to meeting their educational needs.

Attention: The Cal Teach office will be CLOSED on Thursdays & Fridays during July & August. You may contact Marla at calteach@ucsc.edu, if you need our assistance on those days.
