Growing the Next
Generation of Teachers

Pennsylvania is facing a critical teacher shortage. This video tells the story of a Central Columbia School District classroom that is educating and nurturing students in an exemplary manner while helping to grow and inspire generations of future teachers. Every district has stories like this, and the CSIU wants to help tell these stories--not only to demonstrate the positive impact teachers make but to share the creative ways that districts and intermediate units are creating pathways for students to enter careers in education.

Watch the video story of a Central Columbia classroom.

2022 Year in Review

Year in Review 2022

The annual CSIU Year in Review is live online with print copies available. 

https://www.csiu.org/2022YIR

This publication reflects the many ways CSIU programs adhere to their four core values:

  • Service to others
  • Passion for excellence
  • Equity in action
  • Innovation for growth

The Year in Review is a collection of stories from across the CSIU service area that demonstrates the impact CSIU programs make locally and statewide. While it’s impossible to capture all of the products and accomplishment from 2022, this diverse sampling is shared by employees.
