Service Projects
Our students have proposed some ambitious service projects to complete. All of the elementary student teachers are engaged in after-school tutoring with their students. Miss Kristen Brenton, Mrs. Amanda Barnes, and Miss Wendy Unsworth have all committed many hours to the primary students. Miss Addy, the school principal as encouraged the student teachers to be engaged in the service. They have participated in student parades during Earth Watch as well as attended many of the fundraising activities that have taken place on the island to generate school funds. The student teachers have proposed to clean and organize some of the rooms in Isla Bonita Elementary School as well as participate in some of the service activities of the high school student teachers.
The secondary student teachers are working on a variety of initiatives of their own. The athletic court behind the high school has been in disrepair for some time as the salt winds and the always sandy/dusty environment is unrelenting. Kristen Trotter has acted as painting supervisor! All teacher interns have begun to clean the outdoor concrete surface and are readying to re-paint the athletic courts at the request of Mr. Kelly, the science teacher and coach, and Mr. Vasquez, the high school principal. Alberto, the school carpenter and groundskeeper, has acquired the necessary materials and the student teachers have begun the work. John Derian and Margo Ennis is currently gathering teacher information to add to the school website. Mr. Palma, the school’s technology coordinator, has granted the students access to the San Pedro High School’s website. The students intend to add this teacher information to the web site as static web pages. 
Many of the students at San Pedro High School are technologically literate and would appreciate access to instructor web pages for informational purposes. The final student project includes the creation of a short documentary for the school’s promotional efforts. Will Fassbender will lead the effort to collect short video segments. He is looking forward to generating a 10-15 minute video for the high school with many images integrated.
