Public Sector Partnerships Ten Strands has established partnerships with county offices of education and state-level initiatives in climate change and environmental justice, including a recent $6M grant development project for California K-12. This demonstrates a clear procurement track record and a pipeline for curriculum development, teacher professional development, and program evaluation with public education agencies. Sales opportunities include pursuing district-level curricula licenses, PD programs, and government-funded environmental literacy initiatives, as well as co-proposal opportunities with CA DOE and county offices.

Curriculum Growth Engine The Climate Change and Environmental Justice Program launched in 2022 and piloted in 2023, with plans to deliver more content across grades in CA. This creates a recurring demand for standards-aligned instructional materials, teacher training, and assessment resources. Sales opportunities: package and license curricular modules, create PD offerings, and provide implementation support across districts and schools.

Outdoor Learning Opportunity The California Schoolyard Forest System initiative with CAL FIRE and CDE shows Ten Strands' capability to integrate outdoor learning, environmental infrastructure, and STEM in schools. This opens doors to design-build of outdoor classrooms, habitat projects, and ongoing maintenance contracts; potential grants and matching funds. Sales opportunities: outdoor classroom design services, forest and habitat programs, and long-term maintenance and monitoring services.

Strong Program Leadership Leadership additions (CIO, Director of Curriculum) indicate growing program complexity and readiness for multi-district deployments and robust impact evaluation. This suggests a customer-ready operations model that can manage large-scale implementation, reporting, and funder communications. Sales opportunities: end-to-end program management, data collection and reporting solutions, and partnerships to scale across districts with ROI metrics.

California Growth CA-centric presence with strong revenue capacity offers path to multi-state expansion using their grant-driven model and existing partnerships as references. There is potential to expand to other states with climate and environmental justice mandates, and to partner with other environmental education nonprofits or agencies for co-delivery. Sales opportunities: replication in other states, licensing of program frameworks, and cross-pollination partnerships with regional education authorities.
