Support CSTA

CSTA is the only statewide professional organization offering leadership and representation to all science educators—in every science discipline at every grade level, Kindergarten through University. In the last several years, CSTA has earned significant recognition for its successes at the state level. CSTA offers a clear, unified voice for all science educators when it comes to the state standards, instructional materials, and other issues affecting the quality of classroom instruction.

CSTA has been able to accomplish its recent successes only because of the existence of a state office and staff who are available to step up at critical times. But we need the support of all science educators in the state to be able to continue these efforts. Here's how you can help:

Membership: Keeping your membership in CSTA active year after year is one of the best ways to show your ongoing support for excellence in science education. Many of CSTA's administrative costs are subsidized by membership dues. » Click to Learn More

Individual donations: Members and non-members alike are invited to make individual donations to help support CSTA's leadership efforts. Donations of all amounts are gladly accepted and are very much appreciated. Making an individual donation is a great way to support the science education community even if you do not wish to receive CSTA's membership benefits. It's also a great way to give back to the next generation of science educators when you retire. Individual donors who give more than $50 are recognized as "Patrons of Science Education" in California Classroom Science, which reaches over 25,000 science educators in California. Your donation is tax deductible.

Corporate sponsorships: Your company can help support CSTA by sponsoring CSTA events, conference activities, web pages, merchandise, and more. Corporate sponsorship is a great way to get your company's name in front of science educators from all grade levels and all science disciplines from throughout the state. Corporate sponsors may be acknowledged in CCS, the conference program, on our website, and in printed materials. For more information on becoming a corporate sponsor, please contact Jessica Lewis at jessica@cascience.org. Many different opportunities exist to meet your budget and your needs.
