Outreach Success by the Numbers:
July-December
2016
The Cañada College
Outreach Department has had a very busy semester holding a strong presence
through the Peninsula, as well as cultivating new community-based relationships
on behalf of the College. Since July, the team has attended 37 events, promoting Cañada
College and connecting with more than 4,800 members of greater San Mateo
County and northern Santa Clara County. Some of these events include:
- 4th of July Parade - Redwood City
- Facebook Farmers Market - Menlo Park
- Fiestas Patrias - Redwood City
- Edgewood Back to School Fair - San Bruno
- World Journal News College Fair - Milpitas
- Sana Sana Health Fair - San Mateo
- Puente Health Fair - Pescadero
In addition, with the
leadership of our Campus (student) Ambassadors, 21 campus tours were
given to 642 potential students from 21 high schools and
community organizations, including:
- Redwood City Mayor, John Seybert
- Woodside High School Summer Compass Program
- Fusion Academy Tour
- Sequoia Adult School
- Homeschool Program
- East Palo Alto High School
- Redwood High School
Our College Recruiter, Mayra Arellano, has
worked diligently to discover and cultivate new partnerships with local
corporate and non-profit organizations. These efforts have generated new
opportunities for Cañada College to not only hold a stronger presence in the
community, but connect with potential students and guide them to Cañada. These
groups include:
- Facebook- Farmers Market
- Edgewood Drop-In Center
- Boys and Girls Club of the Peninsula
- Familia Unidas
- Escuela Popular, San Jose
- Dream Club at Menlo Atherton High School
- PTSA at Sequoia High School
The momentum not only continues -- it
accelerates-- as the Outreach team heads into Spring, the busiest recruitment
and enrollment semester of the year! Members of the College community are
invited to participate in a number of upcoming events, including Cañada’s
annual open house, Connect to College Night, on April 27, 2017 as well as a
series of Priority Enrollment Program (PEP) events on April 10, 12, 13, 18 and
May 17, 2017.
