Our Interns Are Getting Career Ready...
Ms. Templeton's interns have been working hard during the first days of school to strengthen their technical and employability skills as they prepare to begin at their individual job sites next week.
Through collaborative orientation activities, students have learned more about workplace expectations, professionalism, communication, teamwork, and the importance of making a positive first impression. They are preparing not just to show up at a workplace, but to step in with confidence and represent themselves and their schools with pride.
The Traditional Internship Program at Surry Central High School and Surry Early College High School is a rigorous process that connects classroom learning to a semester-long work-based learning experience. Juniors and Seniors have the opportunity to explore career interests of their choice, gain valuable real-world experience, and ultimately make more informed decisions about the next steps in their college and career pathways.
Hands-on work experience simply can’t be beat!
A huge THANK YOU to our local businesses and community partners for their willingness to partner with Ms. Templeton to create these opportunities and guide our students through meaningful workplace experiences. Your investment of time, knowledge, and mentorship is helping prepare our students for bright and successful futures!
