Central Valley Promise

The Central Valley Promise (CVP or Promise) is a regional, intersegmental response to low college going rates in the Central Valley of California. The State Center Community College District (SCCCD) - comprised of Fresno City (FCC), Clovis (CCC), and Reedley (RC) Community Colleges - together with partners West Hills CCD, five K-12 school districts, and California State University, Fresno, have capitalized on shared initiatives in instructional alignment, student preparation, and technology to design a multifaceted plan that will enhance the region’s college-going culture. The Promise includes community, staff, and faculty development; sustainable funding practices through a regionally coordinated effort; and a centralized CVP Pilot project (hosted at SCCCD campuses) to establish best practices for regional project expansion. 

CENTRAL VALLEY PROMISE  - EXPLORATION DAY

Each fall, Dinuba Unified School District's 6th graders participate in an event hosted by Central Valley Promise. This event aims to inspire students about college by allowing them to tour Reedley College, giving them early exposure to higher education. The morning concludes with a pep rally and a mascot dance-off.
