SP25 CST 462S: Database ExpansionAt — Nyamboyo Technical School

The Project
Last semester,  Luis Hernandez, a CSUMB student and our technical lead for this project, created a database of our students that is secure, searchable, filterable, editable, and can create and download reports. 
We are looking for 1-2 students with the specific technical skills listed below to work with Luis to help expand this database to include other data, such as health metrics, grades, and attendance.  We are also looking to expand the reporting features of the database.
The project will involve working in a team led by Luis, and in conjunction with other student(s) should they sign on.  You will be supervised by NTS’ Chief Operating Officer, Hannah Polakoff.

Technical experience 
This is a web development project whose tech stack consists of PHP, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and MySQL.
Work will mainly consist of designing, testing, deploying, and improving various web applications in the staff portal of our school's website.
Any front and/or back-end dev knowledge will be helpful, but no prior experience is necessary - only commitment and a willingness to learn.
For further technical questions, please reach out to our resident tech lead at: lghfsb95@gmail.com

Who We Are
NTS is a not-for-profit 3-year vocational school located in the Nyamboyo Village in southwestern Kenya. We provide professional, technical education to the community's economically disadvantaged teens and young adults. Our students are ages 14-20, and all have family histories of poverty, lack of education and job opportunities, and chronic food insecurity. At NTS, they receive professional vocational training, 3 meals daily to combat hunger and malnutrition, English-language classes, computer training, and daily sports activities. Our students thrive professionally, physically, and psychologically, building careers that move themselves and their families out of poverty.
