SCDS offers a variety of special events throughout the year for the community-at-large. We recently hosted two free educational forums for Sonoma County parents and educators:

• Teaching and Learning at Home and at School - a simulcast with the Center for the Future of Elementary Education in Los Angeles
• Best Friends, Worst Enemies - A presentation by renowned psychologist, school consultant, and author Dr. Michael Thompson

Previous speakers include the California Supreme Court, Dr. Vandana Shiva, Khaled Hosseini, the Kitchen Sisters, Fritjof Capra, and Bill McKibben. On Saturday, June 15, 2013, SCDS will host its second TedxSonomaCounty!
