Internships are available
for CHS students!
Did you know the City of
Chester is partnering with CHS to offer us internships? I spoke with Mr. Eric
Bayne at the Office of Work Force Development to find out more about this
opportunity. Which, by the way, juniors, any of these internships would be an
amazing senior project. More on that in a later article. But for now, here are
the work options we have through this partnership.
Chester High School
students have the opportunity to take on internships over the summer. As of
right now there are two available. The first one is called the “School To
Career” program which is ran by the Chester Education Foundation. The second
internship is called the “WorkReady” program which is run by the City of
Chester.
If you are of the age of
16 to 18 years old you are eligible to apply to the “School To Career” program.
It is run usually from July 10th-August 17th and students will earn $10-15 per
hour. Students will work Mon-Thurs, 7 hour shifts. If you are interested and
would like an application or if you have any questions, feel free to contact
Ms. Greene at the Chester Education Foundation, 610-364-1212.
The second program is the
“Work Ready Program and is available to students of the age between 16 and 21
during the summer. In order to apply for this you will need the following
items: A resume, Photo ID, and Social Security Card. Both of these programs are
great opportunities for you to learn what the working life is like.
