I decided to go to Hamilton middle school on Friday afternoon and asked to speak with the VIPS coordinator. The lady at the front desk sent me to see the assistant principle, Mrs. Myers. At first, there was a lot of confusion as to what I was suppose to do and who I was suppose to speak with but then I told Mrs. Myers that I was working with CIS and so she led me to meet the CIS project manager, Natalie Flores. Natalie was not expecting me because Julie did not confirm anything with her and said that Julie had already sent her a volunteer from UST--Mike. So then Natalie tried to contact Julie to get approval from her but she did not get a response and so she asked me to check back with her on Monday. I didn't get to work with the students that are part of the CIS program but Mrs. Myers was more than happy to have me there as a volunteer. She led me to a few classrooms and introduced me to the teachers and I ended up helping Mrs. Smith, a seventh grade math teacher, with her students. I also worked with some eighth grade boys that got pulled out of class with their Reading/Language. Even though that wasn't part of the assignment, at least I made good use of my time while I was there.
