What is an Internship?

Internships have the primary goal of providing students supervision and a chance to learn while contributing to your organization’s needs!

• Internships can be paid, or unpaid, yet rewarded, and can be found in corporate and private businesses, government agencies and non-profit organizations.  
  
  
• The participating students must work for an employer or agency for 120 hours or more, ensuring that students graduate high school with greater understanding and connection to colleges and careers.
  
  
• To assist our program participants, the District will provide student intern participants with basic accident insurance.  This policy, purchased through Nationwide Insurance, will provide coverage of up to $25,000 for a student while participating in the internship program. Please review a summary of the policy that is provided by clicking here.  If you wish to obtain additional insurance coverage, please contact your local agent.
