De Gaona began the meeting with a weekly check in. She asked each person about their day and what’s been going on in their lives.
She stated, “It’s to make sure everyone is on track, feel included, and to make sure everyone is doing well.” De Gaona proceeded and asked every individual in the meeting about their day.
One member stood out; his name is Steven Craigie. He shared his music with everyone and began to rap some verses. Craigie was very comfortable with being himself.
After that, Nava shares his screen with everyone and introduced the events for Spring 2021. The document shows the events for every month of the 2021 school year for PCCC students.
Each month in the spring semester they hold events for PCCC students. It’s an opportunity for students to interact and have fun.
