College prep program to track participants

LA’IE — In the idyllic setting of Ko’olauloa, the Game Plan Football Academy quietly and effectively wrapped up its sixth annual camp yesterday at Brigham Young University-Hawai’i.

And in a new feature, the college preparation program will continue over the next eight months for the dozens of seniors who attended.

Asai Gilman, executive director of the “Education 1st” non-profit organization that administers the Game Plan Academy, said he and his staff wanted to find ways to make the camp’s lessons extend beyond just the past four days.

“We saw that in order for it to really have an effect, we have to follow through,” Gilman said. “Sometimes, they don’t retain the information in their memory after the camp ends.”

To make sure the lessons are retained, the Academy plans to “huddle” with the seniors through monthly “Chalk Talks” until March. Communication will be done through e-mail, and workshops and presentations will be offered covering topics such as creating video profiles and SAT/ACT preparation.

“These are the next steps for seniors,” Gilman said. “We’ll have academic advisers available, college presenters. We’re excited, we’re looking forward to it.”

The camp participants and even their parents soaked in a lot of information since Monday, when the program began at Radford High School.
