The Acjachemen/ Juaneno History and Cultural Tour for Educators When: TBD
| The OCSSA network is a forum of Orange County principals, teacher leaders, and coaches. This network will discuss best practices and share resources to better History-Social Science teaching and learning. During OCSSA virtual network meetings, we will spend time learning from one another, learning together, and developing ideas for the next steps in professional development and practice.
During this tour, educators will explore the history and culture of Acjachemen families, commonly known as the Juaneno Band of Mission Indians. Acjachemen community leaders will present at the Village at Putuidem, the Montanez Adobe, Los Rios, and the Juaneno Band of Mission Indians Tribal office. They will also help participants consider ways to center authentic stories of the Acjachemen in the K-12 classroom. A lunch will be included as part of the tour.
