On June 17, 2014, ERUSD made history by becoming the first school district in California to adopt Ethnic Studies as a high school graduation requirement. Learn how this historic decision has placed ERUSD at the cutting-edge of promoting a global education for students. Ethnic Studies has been implemented through a collaborative effort with teachers, and has generated extensive community and university partnerships. Participants gain a replicable model for making history in their own district!
