MetroED Foundation
Metropolitan Education District Foundation
The MetroED Foundation began as the Central Santa Clara Regional Occupational Agency Foundation in 1992 to operate for the advancement of education and solicit contributions and raise funds for the support of educational projects for the Central Santa Clara County Regional Occupational Agency. In 1997, the articles of incorporation were amended to change the name to the Metropolitan Education District Foundation.
The MetroED Foundation, a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation, works to support on-campus high school student programs for the Central County Occupational Center (CCOC) and student programs for the Metropolitan Adult Education Program (MAEP).
The Foundation oversees the Leroy R. Morrell fund, a $1.2 million trust left to the students enrolled in either the CCOC Electrical Maintenance or Heating and Air Conditioning programs. Mr. Morrell was an alumnus of San Jose Tech High and was passionate about assisting students in these programs.
The Foundation Directors are seeking your assistance to enhance the career technical and adult education experience of the 30,000 students served by the programs at MetroED by your support of the MetroED Foundation.
The Foundation Board meets bi-monthly and is always in need of additional Board members. If you are interested in becoming a MetroED Foundation Board member, contact Althea Polanski at (408) 723-6724 or polanski@metroed.net.
