21st Century Community Learning Centers

All Washington K-12 public schools are currently closed, which means our 21st Century sites and centers will also be closed to students and staff during this time. We are awaiting further guidance from OSPI and the governor on summer operating status. Site Coordinators are available remotely via email and or phone to support current students and families.

Professional Development

ESD 123 has transitioned nearly all professional development offerings to virtual trainings via Zoom or other online platforms.  Any events that cannot be offered virtually may be cancelled or postponed and communicated accordingly.

OSPI is working closely with the nine ESDs to develop content-specific online learning for educators during the Long-Term School Closures (LTSC). We encourage you to browse the PD Enroller catalog using the search term “LTSC” to find numerous PD offerings covering multiple subjects, FREE of charge!
