There are many creative and innovative developments underway at MCOE to provide the best services possible to students, teachers, administrators and staff. We are launching a redesigned web site that will help all of us make our services more accessible and open communications.

We formed partnerships, both internally and externally, to design a site that will make the user’s experience rewarding. The team met regularly to identify services to showcase, and how best to present them. We partnered with the Alameda County Office of Education for cost effective technical assistance and support. This relationship is ongoing, and strengthens both organizations’ capabilities.
 
You will find that the new County Office of Education site has a new look and a new identity: www.montereycoe.org

The site is now available for viewing, and will be constantly evolving, so be sure to check back often for updates. We are looking forward to highlighting the outstanding work of each of our departments.
 
Please join me in thanking our MCOE team who are helping all of us to dynamically communicate through the new website:
