Internships
Internship opportunities are available for juniors and seniors who wish to explore a career field (s) prior to completing high school. Internships in the education field are five days a week at the designated block for internship. Business internships are usually two or three days a week for a minimum time of six hours per week. Students have the opportunity to explore the career field in much more detail than a half-day or one day job shadow. Students that know this is the career field they want to pursue get a “jump start” in their learning of the field by starting while still in high school.
Students must be in “good standing” with the school as defined as a GPA of at least 2.5 for education internships and 2.0 for business internships, good behavior reports and good attendance reports.
Pre-internship forms are required and can be picked up in the Career Center for completion prior to their appointment with the Workforce Readiness Coordinator.
