During the 2006 spring break, four Hamilton women made the journey to Cofradia, Honduras, for a service-learning project at San Jeronimo Bilingual School (SJBS). With the suggestion and much help from current volunteer teacher at San Jeronimo, Lauren Fisher '05, students Sarah Griffith '06, Emily Gunther '06, Johanna Sanchez '08, and Julia Daly '08 created the pilot trip for the international service-learning trip, Hamiltonians in Honduras. In Cofradia, the girls not only worked on art, reading, and athletic activities with some of SJBS's 150 students, but they painted the concrete library, organized and coded hundreds of books, and made picture dictionaries for Lauren's first-grade class.
