In this case the island had little representation and extremely low school funding. For the whole island there was just one school for all grade levels. The school was split into two classes, one with the school principle Mrs. Scott and the second with Conroy. Conroy taught fifth to eighth grade. The funding that the school received appeared to be very minimal because the school had no proper resources to offer the student. Conroy’s class only had a chalkboard with a map and enough desks for the students to sit. They had a projector but it was only used a couple of times. The school it self was only one old building. The schools funding reflects on the student’s performance. A result of not giving children proper resources in school is that the students will not receive progressive academic achievement. In the island one of the reasons as to why these children were not receiving a proper education was because the school did not have the proper resources for the children to learn.

As the name implies the Academy of the Pacific Rim highlights Eastern pedagogical customs and practices. Pacific Rim specifically focuses upon two Eastern concepts, gambatte and kaizen. Gambatte is defined for the students of Pacific Rim as meaning “to persist or never give up” (Seider, 2012, p. 164). Kaizen is characterized by the faculty “as a commitment to working for the continuous improvement of the community” (Seider, 2012, p. 164) These two phrases are the foundation of the common language used by Pacific Rim faculty, students, and families to promote civic character education. Gambatte is used as an expression of encouragement when overcoming life’s hurdles. Kaizen drives the manner in which students interact with one another and motivates them to work for the good of the community.

As a mature, visiting placement student, I was welcomed and immediately indoctrinated into the schools philosophy around care and support.
