ANSWER
When arriving at Harper High school, security was located at the student entrance where there were metal detectors all visitors needed to show ID. The overall experience was very surprising, especially since several people in my family had gone to this school in the past. The school was huge on the inside, but barely no students in the school. I was amazed how ancient the schooled looked, it needed lots of repairs, and the auditorium where the presentation was held was very small. There were only one boy’s restroom on each floor, which seem very odd since there were Serval restrooms for the girls. It made me feel like they assume that more girls will be in attendance then boys, which is very sad, but I did notice that they had a unisex restroom which was the first time I have ever seen in any school. This was a good experience by providing information to these teenagers. I can tell from the presentation most of these students did not have any knowledge of STI, and how they can protect themselves, so I was happy to be apart of this experience and explaining any questions that they might have when taking them to the restroom. The most problematic thing was explaining this information to the juniors and seniors. They were doing a lot of showboating as if they knew the information. The freshmen and sophomore were more attentive, but when going to the restroom for testing they begin to make fun of their fellow classmates that disclosed they were not having sexual intercourse so they did not need to participate. The experience could have been better, if their teachers was a part of the process at least letting them know they care and they too are worried about their health. Other, approaches that can be used is educating the teachers as well as the students, so they can provide support and answer questions if needed. Some of the community resources that I have utilized in the past was planned in Parenthood for Birth Control, and the WIC program. The WIC program assists young mothers and women who are low income by providing formula and important nutritional information. [Show Less]
