ITEM EXPLANATION:
Carlsbad's CityStuff program is an outreach program made up of employee and City
volunteers. Each spring, CityStuff volunteers are assigned to a classroom where they will
introduce "their Carlsbad world". This year there has been an unprecedented response
from local schools, presently there are 57 classrooms who will be participating. This six
week long program educates students about their local government and its processes and
procedures. The curriculum is designed to compliment state standards for third grade civic
education. Donations are solicited to offset the City's costs associated with printing
classroom lessons. Staff is able to develop and advance this program by generating
teaching materials used by the volunteer instructors and other related materials.
The CityStuff program began in 2002 with the hopes of enriching the youth of Carlsbad.
Waste Management is a charter sponsor of this program, and has continuously made
strides to improve the effectiveness and success of CityStuff. The donation made by the
Waste Management is to be appropriated to the CityStuff account.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The Waste Management donation will allow the CityStuff s innovative volunteer program to
reach more schools and children than in previous years.
