Thank you @GavinNewsom & @LuzRivas for championing #AB1251 to address credentialing pathways & expand the computer science teacher pool 🎉 Building the capacity & pipeline of teachers is an important step towards increasing #equity and #access for #CSEd.
The @CAgovernor signed three more of my bills today plus my Natural Resources committee bill!! 😄 1) #AB1251 - creates a workgroup on teacher credentialing for instruction in computer science to determine which credentials should also authorize teaching computer science
