Internships and job shadows are great opportunities for students to learn about a career and gain valuable work experience. Students learn new talents, including the communication skills needed in a work environment.

Ideas Into Action: Internships & Community Service

Community service is central to the Middlebridge experience. Experiential learning engages and benefits everybody, while it fosters citizenship and ethics through positive, interactive engagement. To emphasize and support our community service programming, our internship program allows students to explore potential areas for future study at college and to develop personal hobbies and passions through internships, job-shadowing, and fieldwork. Integrated throughout the curriculum, the internship program is comprised of four integrated components: career awareness, career exploration, self-exploration, and occupational training and skill acquisition. In our whole-child education model, students need to explore and realize skills, then train and practice them in real-world settings, in order for them to thrive in happy careers. Likewise, current students who continue to give back in community service over their summer breaks report higher levels of happiness, connection, and satisfaction with their communities.
