Youth & Government Day <br />Evaluation Summary <br />Unedited <br />1. Did you find participation in YIG assisted in your understanding of <br />governance issues in the city and school district? <br />• The PM discussion group inspired me to include others in the involvement of the <br />city, and also for me to get involved because working with high ranked city <br />officials and children is what I love to do. <br />• It was very interesting to see how things work behind the scenes <br />• I learned about issues and new programs our city wants to put into place <br />• It was really fun and it is good to know that the city has interest in our input <br />• The YIG program is great and well done <br />• This helped me get a better understanding of the day to day procedures <br />• It's a great program and it was very useful. I learned a lot about the schools and <br />the city of Pleasanton <br />• This is a great program. I really loved going through the day following Gary <br />Hicklin <br />• I learned a lot about how the government works <br />• I learned about how the economy is affecting the school district <br />• There are more that goes into each city job than I would have ever thought. I <br />grew a better appreciation for how much city workers do for us <br />• It was very fun <br />• I wish I could have spent more time visiting school with my shadow rather than <br />being on CTV 30 interview (wish it could have been more interactive) <br />• I really enjoyed the job shadowing and it gave me an interest in school <br />administration <br />• I enjoyed being exposed to the behind the scenes way of life in the community <br />• I want to be a Susan Andrade-Wax <br />• It was a good experience which allowed me to better understand what the city <br />does <br />• Mr. Ott was able to show us more than just school related things - he showed <br />how to integrate multiple passions in work and hobbies -great shadow! <br />• I understood the definition of jobs past just their title. I also learned about <br />problems, concerns and decisions our city is faced with <br />• Well, the person I followed was not immediately in the main light of school district <br />issues, but she is involved in almost every aspect -help all parts of the district <br />• I think this was great for students to get involved and to feel a part of something. I <br />loved it. I think the teens should be more involved and I think there should be <br />more activities in Pleasanton <br />• It was awesome participating in the meeting with the mayor and council members <br />
