Day 8: Final Day at San Pedro Junior College

We started our day in what has become our normal routine... breakfast and blogging at Caribbean Villas.

At 11:00, Jaime and I got together and began compiling our interview notes and thoughts from our group meeting yesterday to begin writing up a collaboration report for San Pedro Junior College.  We began breaking down the items that administration had identified as areas in which they needed assistance and then incorporating the ideas and suggestions we spoke of during our interviews.  We decided to break it down into short-term, mid-term, and long-term goals.

At 1:00 we met back up with the rest of our group and headed back out to the junior college. We spent the next few hours reviewing some of our suggestions with Mr. Gilharry and Ms. Gomez.  We were also able to interview them as well as the secretary Miss Betty on the our topics of research.  This was the first opportunity we had been given to speak with Miss Betty.

Miss Betty wears many hats:  secretary, admissions, business office, registrar, student services.  Miss Betty is the person who will see students from the time they come to apply to the college all the way through to graduation.  This woman certainly could use an extra set of hands or two.

We left the junior college around 4:45 and then met back up for dinner to discuss the resources we will provide in our final collaboration report and a time frame to have the student handbook reviewed and recommendations to present.

The end of another very productive day!
