District Summer Internship Program
Township High School District 214 has developed life and career planning programs to meet the learning and developmental needs of all students. These programs exist to provide a broad range of activities aimed at increasing career awareness.
Career learning experiences take on many forms and are intended to help students with their life and career planning. Career Nights, field trips, career treks, and internships give students opportunities to explore and fit themselves into the world beyond the high school classroom.
The Summer Internship Program is available to students who are extremely committed to pursuing a specific career and have the knowledge, skill, dedication and spirit that will be required to engage in a very rigorous and challenging authentic learning experience.
The Summer Internship is a non-paid, two-semester (1.0 credit) course.
