What is the Fullerton Education Partnership?

The Fullerton Education Partnership is a joint educational collaborative partnership between Fullerton Joint Union High School District,  North Orange County Community College District (NOCCCD) and Cal-State Fullerton designed to support Fullerton Joint Union High School District students in grades 9 through 12.
