COMMISSION MEMBERS
Inland Coalition featured our Baldy View ROP
students in their weekly newsletter. Claremont,
Montclair, Upland and Ontario High Schools’ BVROP
students loaned their helping hands at the 12th
Annual Ontario Health Fair in Ontario, CA. Students
participated by conducting brief teacher activities
giving them the opportunity to practice public
speaking and demonstrate leadership skills. They
also distributed health information to health fair
attendees. BVROP Instructor, Marie Sliney was there
front and center to assist her students. Marie has
been with BVROP for over seven years and teaches
Healthcare Occupations and Medical Assisting

DeRenzo welcomes Advisory members

About
Advisory Committees play an integral
part in shaping occupational curricula
development at Baldy View ROP. They
help ensure that our programs remain in
touch with the needs of local business
and industry and that our students
receive relevant instruction. The
Advisory Committee is a group of
individuals selected to represent broad
points of view relative to a specific
occupational education area. The
members should have a strong sense of
commitment to the development of our
educational program and our students.
Membership on the Advisory
Committee should not be limited to a
specific portion of a particular
occupation; rather it should provide a
broad perspective that requires that
persons with differing backgrounds
combine to give input and advice.
Most occupational education programs
enjoy greater benefits when the
Advisory Committee represents both
workers and supervisors. People who
actually perform the skills and those
who hire and supervise can then work
together to give the instructional staff
an accurate picture of the community’s
employment needs.

advisor, please contact us at

“I love ROP and I am a huge believer in the program. I have always
had ROP students in the hotels I have managed. I have met and
worked with so many students over the years and have seen some
wonderful success stories. As a teenager I didn’t know what I wanted
to do when I graduated. I found out about ROP and decided to try the Hotel Operations
program. It sounded interesting and I liked working with people. My experience with ROP
was very positive, my instructor was knowledgeable about the hospitality industry, he provided support throughout the program, and I was honored when he nominated me for an ROP
award in my division. This experience helped shape my future and it was one of the best
things I ever did.”
