Newsletters

The San Mateo County Office of Education produces a variety of newsletters to help educators, families, partners, and community members stay up-to-date on the work of the County Office, learn about professional development opportunities, and receive highlights on how San Mateo County's 23 school districts are serving students. We encourage you to sign up for one or more of the following newsletters:

SMCOE Communications

SMCOE Spotlight highlights the work of the County Office of Education in serving districts, educators, and students; shines a light on successful education practices in San Mateo County; and celebrates students, educators, and schools. SMCOE Spotlight replaces the County Office's former newsletter, News and Views. You may also be interested in receiving our media releases and weekly professional development opportunities.  You can select one, two, or all three communications.
