The Mission of the Capcitación para Universidad is to supplement regular Colegio for motivated students by providing voluntary, advanced placement courses and remedial tutoring as necessary, that challenges and empowers students. CPU is an innovative “school in a school” complementing the rudimentary government primary and secondary school system. The challenge is that the Colegio of Solentiname is a distancia school in Nicaragua that meets only Saturday and Sunday every other weekend. This system was developed for schools in rural areas where students needed to work to support the subsistence existence of their families. In the past, students who were motivated to go to University, were either unable to pass the entrance exams, or pass the first semester of mandatory courses. It is not the fault of these students that the Distancia system has failed them. With your help we intend to help students overcome these barriers.
CPU focuses on four key components of student development: Espanol, mathematics, ESL and study techniques. It is a comprehensive challenging program that supports and encourages students to succeed in high school while preparing them for the rigors of University. Students will leave CPU with the skills and knowledge necessary to pursue their vision for the future and confident in their ability to do so. In CPU Thursday day session, we will review useful research and study skills, tutor time, and technology skills. Our methodology includes a focus on offering advanced placement courses, and elective subjects that are not available in Distancia colegio, as well as innovative programs to develop critical thinking and creative learning. The goal is to use these new tools to get the students thinking for themselves, and developing a lifelong love of learning.
Our priority has changed from simply providing the opportunity to attend University to supporting students until they graduate from University. We want to instill the dream of University in every student, thus the clave system of student name and projected year of graduation from University.
- We have 29 students attending CPU. Sponsorship for a Spider Student is $25.00 a month or $300.00 per year since CPU meets every month.

Please remember this is hopefully a mutual committment for their five years of University, although we understand that your situation can change, and you can cancel the recurring donation at any time.
All donations are pooled together for each group of students, and we hope you will be able to create a personal connection with one of these students to show that "we care" about their future. It’s a tangible and measured way to support the future of Solentiname, with some great rewards!
