Cajon Valley Kids to take over Petco Park on Saturday March 4th

Congratulations to our Student TED Speakers! We were extremely impressed with the many applications for TED Speakers. As a result, 45 Cajon Valley students will share their TED talk at EXPO day at Petco Park for the San Diego Festival of Science and Engineering as part of our promotion of the TEDxKids@ElCajon event on June 3, 2017. In the weeks leading up to the Festival the student speakers will work with Cajon Valley staff mentors to rehearse their presentations. We could not be more proud of our Cajon Valley students for sharing their ideas with the community. We hope you join us in celebrating and cheering on these brave students on March 4th, 2017 on the Dugout stage at Petco Park.
