ABOUT US
Keeping the public informed about our schools
Inside California Education is the only statewide television series offering informative and compelling stories about California public education.
From small rural districts to urban schools, Inside California Education travels the state to explore important stories about California's students, educators, school staff, leaders, and families, as well as innovative programs that address important challenges. The series features stories from early education, K-12, and community colleges.
The series is a production of PBS KVIE in Sacramento and NationalEdOnline, a California 501c3 nonprofit organization. Their shared mission to provide educational information and resources to viewers throughout California has resulted in this informative and inspiring public television series.
By utilizing a distinguished Advisory Board and viewer feedback, Inside California Education researches and produces program segments from all over California.
Our broadcast and online audience continues to grow. Since our premiere in 2015, we have produced more than 50 half-hour episodes and almost 200 stories. Inside California Education episodes have aired more than 2,300 times on 26 PBS channels throughout California and beyond.
Public education has never been more important, and we are committed to continuing to bring you compelling stories highlighting the issues, challenges, and successes in our public schools.
