San Mateo, CA – The San Mateo County Community College District (SMCCCD) will hold its board meeting on Wednesday, November 19, 2025, at 6 p.m. at the Ted Adcock Community Center in Half Moon Bay, CA. Following the successful models of the October 23, 2024, meeting in East Palo Alto and the March 26, 2025, meeting in Daly City, the Half Moon Bay location was chosen to enhance engagement with Coastside residents. Community members can attend either in person or virtually to learn about the District’s educational pathways and opportunities available for local residents. 

At the meeting, the SMCCCD Board of Trustees will receive an overview of College of San Mateo (CSM) Coastside’s progress, impact, and future plans. The presentation, led by CSM President Dr. Manuel Alejandro Pérez, will feature community partners, student voices, program milestones, academic highlights, and expanding support services, including partnerships with Cabrillo Unified School District, ALAS, and other local organizations. The Board will also view a short video and hear brief remarks from Coastside leaders as CSM outlines its vision for sustaining and expanding educational opportunities on the Coast.

SMCCCD invites all interested community members, families, community groups, and prospective students to attend this important meeting to learn more about the District’s initiatives and partnerships.
