In 15 years, the NCHS Senior Internship Program has grown from a handful of student participants to 98% of the entire graduating class. From approximately mid-May through mid-June, NCHS seniors participate in unpaid internships with local businesses and organizations (typically during school hours, 8 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.), earning academic credit. The host sites that take in one or more students “consistently tell us that our interns bring fresh energy, curiosity, and creativity to their workplace,” according to Kelly DelMazio, senior internship coordinator at NCHS. The host sites range from one-person operations to large companies within a 30-mile radius of New Canaan. To learn more or to sign up as a host, visit the NCHS SIP website or contact Kelly DelMazio, Senior Internship Coordinator, at Kelly.DelMazio@ncps-k12.org or 203-594-4752.
