Peters reported that they did a focus group with a group of Konawaena girls and <br />their teachers at the UH West Hawaii campus. She prepared a little questionnaire to <br />gather some information from them. They also had a group discussion about how <br />they felt about the mentoring program, who they are, and what their plans are. The <br />data collected from the girls was a different data from what they said out loud so <br />there was a lot more information on paper. <br /> <br />K. Peters said that they went ahead and paid for the mentoring program lunches <br />held on April 4, 2012. Therefore, she would like to request a reimbursement from <br />CSW for that event. <br /> 3 <br /> <br />
