Opportunity Summary 

Learning for Life Charter School sees the intern role as a unique opportunity for interns to use their time to identity a school need which they are passionate about and developing a project that addresses that need. Interns may focus their time working with students or working with the administration if their interest is a non-profit focus. In the past interns have developed programs to address an area of need. For example, working with seniors to identify and develop post secondary plans. Another intern has worked with students to develop student activities. We serve a population of students who have typically not had a positive school experience in the past, and our role as staff is to help students re engage with their education by meeting their unique needs. We offer home visits, flexible on campus scheduling, food and other resources like counseling.
