SENIOR INTERNSHIP
Philosophy of the Senior Internship
The purpose of the internship is to offer SHS seniors a practical work experience/project which will extend learning beyond the classroom and which, looking towards the future, may provide insight into a potential field of interest. The goals of this program stem from the conviction that “real world” experiences are of vital importance to high school learners. Combining the classroom environment with practical work experience (or a project suited to a student’s interest) is essential in order to provide students with a balanced and complete vision of life and learning skills. Such experiences provide students with meaningful and relevant learning experiences.
GOALS
The senior internship will offer seniors an opportunity to:
- Incorporate learned experiences into practical life goals
- Develop self-initiative, self-reliance, and self-confidence
- Become actively involved in a work community
- Explore possible career interests
- Discover within themselves an interest or passion
