  • Sponsored by Union Bank February 23, 2013 I Am Writing to Express My Sincere Gratitude for Your Generosity
    Sponsored by Union Bank February 23, 2013 I am writing to express my sincere gratitude for your generosity. As I humbly stood waiting for my name to be called [at the Scholarship Awards ceremony], I walked proud and full of emotion as I heard my name through the loud speakers. After I was photographed, I sat down and then opened up the brochure in order to see my name once more, and that is when it hit me; I was overcome with an immense feeling of appreciation as I thought to myself about what a prestigious recognition I just received. The feeling of accomplishment that I felt at that moment will remain with me forever. It is people like you who give me the strength and motivation to keep my dream alive of earning a bachelor’s degree in Business Administration. I am inspired like never before. Your thoughtful donation helps me as I continue my plight to better myself and those around me. Helping this world to become a better place is my ultimate goal in life, and you have lit a fire beneath me! I extend my heart out to you to say ‘thank you’ for helping me in my time of need. --Cypress College Scholarship Recipient Minds. Motivated. You inspire the future. You believe in the transformational power of a classroom. You light the way for a new generation of students. Your commitment creates the leaders of tomorrow. For your dedication to education, we salute you. Union Bank is proud to support Cypress College and sponsor the Americana Awards.

  • WASC 2019 Self-Study Report
    1 I PREFACE The North Orange County Regional Occupational Program (NOCROP) 2019 WASC Self-Study Process has been a collaborative effort over the last eighteen months involving various stakeholders. During this time, the WASC Leadership Team facilitated opportunities to reflect on NOCROP’s mission of student success and the Career Technical Education experience we offer. NOCROP’s self-study process began in October 2017 with the review of accreditation criteria by Dana Lynch, Assistant Superintendent of Educational Services. In December 2017, the WASC Executive Team was formed to facilitate the process and Jennifer Prado, Patient Care Pathways Instructor was selected to serve as the 2019 Self-Study Coordinator. The self-study process was officially launched with a WASC Executive Team Meeting in February 2018, where Focus Group Chairs and Co-Chairs were assigned, and timelines were established. Focus Group work related to students and instruction commenced via Professional Learning Community (PLC) meetings during March, April, and May 2018. Individual meetings for the remaining Focus Groups were held during those same months. The focus on reviewing data and reflecting on its meaning has become more important and work was started early. The Educational Services Department provided data updates to instructional staff at the start of PLC meetings and guided them to reflect on its meaning, impact on them individually, and impact to the organization. Further review of data took place during NOCROP’s Back-to- School In-Service in August 2018 and at Spring In-Service in January 2019, which resulted in the implications identified in Chapter 1 of this document.
