The mission of the Compton Education Foundation is to provide access to high quality opportunities in STEAM education to all students of the Compton Unified School District.
The Compton Unified School District Education Foundation (a.k.a. Compton Education Foundation or CEF) is a non-profit 501 (c)(3) corporation established in 2003 to raise funds for all Compton USD public schools serving approximately 26,000 students.
CEF supports learning opportunities for youth in Compton through educational enhancements that strengthen local creativity, wellness and academic excellence.
It is no secret that education funding in California is both inadequate and unequal. In the Compton USD, 85% of children come from low-income families that do not have the resources to provide the same educational opportunities available to children in higher income communities. Compton students have consistently proven that when given the same resources as other students, they perform and often out-perform other students. CEF is committed to providing engaging, high-impact educational opportunities by uniting the community and other supporters to meet the needs of this generation of Compton students.
STEAM - Science, Technology, Engineering, the Arts and Mathematics.
STEAM careers are one of the fastest growing sectors of our economy and STEAM skills will be key to success to all jobs as the digital age impacts every industry. Ensuring that young people get early exposure, enrichment and education in STEAM is critical to their future success.
