Oakland Public School Virtual Volunteer: Girl Geek X CCPA – Student Project Feedback

Want to give public high school students crucial feedback on presentation skills and their action plan? Students will take the feedback to further define their action project for the next semester.

Sign up to volunteer with us virtually February 9-13! The in-person event has been updated to be a virtual volunteer opportunity 🙂

Girl Geek X volunteers support public school students and educators at Coliseum College Prep Academy (CCPA) in East Oakland. The school entrance is on the corner of 66th Ave and International Blvd. (map)

New volunteers will need to complete this 1x Volunteer Registration Form with the Oakland Public Education Fund. Under “Choose the Option that Best Describes You,” mark “Adopt an Oakland School Partner”.

Volunteers will give students feedback on their senior projects (e.g. does the student research match their plan, are the steps realistic / attainable). 

If volunteers are interested, they may continue to virtually or IRL mentor teams in TechLink Virtual Mentorship Program through completion of the senior capstone projects at the end of the school year (April 2024).
