Thank You

Celebrating 95 Years2008 marks CalSTRS’ 95th Anniversary. For the past 95 years, California’s public school educators have enjoyed a secure retirement. We plan to provide retirement security for you and future members for at least another 95.

A Lot To Be Proud Of

CalSTRS is proud to serve California’s public educators. You devote your lives to our state’s students. Fulfilling our promise of a safe retirement for you, year in and year out, for 95 years is worth celebrating.

On July 1, 1913, we began with 120 teachers, and now we serve more than 812,000 members. Our portfolio is a force to be reckoned with, and we have made impressive strides in assisting members prepare for and enjoy a secure and fulfilling retirement.
