For my project, I am going to start a flow arts and gloving club on campus. Flow arts is dancing with various props including hula hoops, poi, fire fans, etc. This club will provide a creative learning and jam space where people can teach each other new tricks, or people can come to have a good time dancing to music. For the actual club meetings, I am thinking of creating different workshops for hooping, poi, gloving, etc. People can split up and go to the workshop they wish to participate in. Also, I want to host a talent show near the end of the quarter, so people can showcase their talents and new moves they have learned! Hopefully, more experienced flow arts performers can come speak at the club and provide demonstrations. So far, I haven't heard of a flow arts club on campus, and I know people who would like to join. I don't know how many people on campus are interested in flow arts, but maybe this club will pique their interest!

Hello! My overall goal is to keep daylight savings time all year round in California. That means no more adjusting clocks twice a year! For this quarter, I don't have enough time to start my petition. Instead, I'm using this academic term to schedule the things I need to do to make the petition, create a draft of the initiative, spread the message to as many people as possible before the start of the petition's circulating period, obtain a budget for campaigning, and find allies. On campus, Doctor Crain has my back!

I have decided to work on a project that will improve and make stronger the reading, writing, and communication skills on ESL (English as a Second Language), and ELD (English Language Development) students in high school. I am interested to provide to high school students the resources that they need to succeed in higher education. My main goal is that those students on ESL, and ELD reach their full potential, so that they pursuit higher education by going to UC and CSU colleges. Also, I think that is important to focus on ESL and ELD students because when they decide to go to college or community college they do not have the right tools to succeed in their education, as a result they end up dropping school. Although most of those students are immigrants and they may not have the resources at home to improve their English skills, they need a place in campus where they can go, ask for help, and interact with teachers and students that are outside of the ELS and ELD program. I think this is important because is an issue that affect ESL and ELD high school since they are not getting pre-college classes that help them to go to college. Also, they tend to be in the same English level until because they surrounded by students that are not native speakers, so that the chances to speak the language are few. Finally, it is important to focus on the ESL students from high school because they are the future of tomorrow.

My focus on improving the mental health services and resources at the school is sorely needed. In college, many students suffer from mild to acute mental disorders, and even if they don't, they are almost always stressed out. Here at De Anza we only have one personal counselor, for a student body of thousands. And you have to wait days and jump through hoops and fill out forms to even see that one counselor. This does not help in an emergency. It also turns off many students from seeking help at the school in the first place. Yet for many students, seeking help outside school isn't an option either.
