The Classroom of the Future Foundation (CFF) has combined the excitement of the hit show “Shark Tank” and the need to support innovative San Diego County superintendents to create an event called “Supe Tank“. Our Supe Tank 4.0 event on October 24, 2024, will be followed by a New Superintendent Welcome Reception to introduce the community to the San Diego County Office of Education’s new Superintendent of Schools, Dr. Gloria Ciriza. Attire: Business Casual. Supe Tank is a unique way for superintendents to share innovation that is taking place in our 43 school districts by pitching their project—a program, initiative or idea—to a room full of potential partners. Superintendents participating in Supe Tank are given 5 minutes to pitch an innovation from their district. Previous presentations resulted in several partner connections for our San Diego County school districts, including one district receiving $100,000 for their pitch. CFF’s Supe Tank 4.0—presented by SchoolsFirst Federal Credit Union—will be hosted by the University of San Diego on Thursday, October 24 from 3:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. Industry partners, educators, and community leaders are invited to learn about the innovation in our school districts. They will be given the opportunity to meet with the presenting superintendents at a reception after pitches. The hope is that school leaders and industry leaders will come together and form their own partnerships around some of the ideas presented. Following the Supe Tank presentations will be the New Superintendent Welcome Reception where the community will be introduced to the new San Diego County Superintendent of Schools, Dr. Gloria Ciriza. Dr. Ciriza was appointed to her role at the San Diego County Office of Education (SDCOE) in July 2024. She previously served as the assistant superintendent of Student Services and Programs at SDCOE, which includes the Juvenile Court and Community Schools, Special Education, Student Support, Student Wellness and School Culture, Whole Child and Community Design, and Outdoor Education departments. She joined SDCOE in March 2021 and has been instrumental in advancing SDCOE’s North Star goal to reduce poverty through public education.
