It's time for another fiesta at La Casa Hogar, and this is going to be a big one! This evening we are having the end of trimester fiesta in a nearby park. We've invited all of the students & their families from all of the classes as well as volunteers, board members, and anyone else that may be associated with La Casa Hogar. It's going to be a potluck with tons of food & games for the children. We're going to recognize women that have obtained their GED's or driving permits, & give a special gift to an early childhood specialist volunteer. I even got one of the Spanish classes to do a skit which should be really fun!
Other than planning for the fiesta, I've just been wrapping things up for classes. I have been giving post-tests in the computer classes & trying to gather enough information for the computer outcomes I've been working on. It has been a little frusturating to see class participation drop-off so suddenly. Many of the women have begun to work in the fields & will continue to work throughout the summer. For this reason our summer class offerings are limited-offering only 2 levels of ESL, 3 evenings a week.
