Help: What's the name of this mystery etude?

Help: What's the name of this mystery etude?

When I was in HS, I went to a summer camp called Governor's School, and one of the activities you could do was an introduction to Classical Guitar. It was taught by the professor at the University of Southern Mississippi, John De Chiaro. (He recorded professionally as Giovanni De Chiaro.) He was an amazing man and had a ton of patience for a class full of high school beginners.

I had played around on guitar before, but this was my introduction to classical, finger-style guitar. We had to do a short mini-recital, and I remember working this piece up and playing it in front of everyone. I remember it was in a book of etudes, and it was one of the first ones in a series of etudes on position playing. I worked on it so much over that couple of weeks that I remember it to this day, but I have no idea where it is or where it's from. Does anyone recognize it?
