One of my favorite parts was riding in the Gator and also just the random some of the smaller, more random tasks were fun.

A good candidate must be willing to do manual labor for five hours. I did the hands-on horticulture program and I had to wear pants even when it was hot and humid outside. If you're interested in an internship outside this one will guarantee you five hours outside. Also, you should be comfortable with talking to people. People will come up to you and ask you what a plant is and you probably won’t know but then you can refer them to one of your supervisors. I also wouldn’t say that you have to pursue a career in horticulture, but it makes what you're doing a little more interesting if you like it.

8. Any last thoughts or reflections about your internship you want to share?

Overall, if you want to be outside and talking to people and also learn something new then interning at the Arboretum is a good choice.

My name is Alison, and I interned at the Madison Area YMCA in the aquatics department. I would say my internship experience was a lot of fun. During my internship, my main role was organizing the spaces that belonged to the aquatics department. This included closets, cabinets, and drawers.

My time at CHS prepared me for this internship by giving me skills to organize myself and my work and teaching me how to communicate with other people. My favorite part of the internship was the people I worked with. During the day, I interacted with lifeguards in the aquatics office and created bonds with my coworkers. In the future, a good candidate for this internship is someone who enjoys hands-on work and is interested in the functioning of sports facilities such as a pool. Someone interested in this internship should be comfortable working independently and communicating clearly.

My name is:  Ava Finkelstein.

I interned at: The Learning Path in Chatham.

My internship experiences were exciting and inspiring!

Describe your role and responsibilities during your internship:

I had the opportunity to grow connections with students of various ages and learn what it is like to run a school behind the scenes. I worked with children ages 2-5 and each age has taught me something valuable.

Describe how you think CHS prepared you for your internship:

CHS prepared me well for my internship in that I learned how to interact with many different types of people. Even though the kids I was working with were mostly toddlers, they still presented so much variety among one another, just like in a high school. I understood that not every child was going to agree with or understand something that I told another child and I learned to accept that and learn from it as well.

What did you love about your internship OR what is most memorable about your experience?:

I loved growing connections with all the students. It was so rewarding and exciting to know that I was making an impact on these children at such a young age. After just a few days of interning, students I would pass by in the hallway would say Hi and be excited to see me. This made me love coming back every single day.

Who would be a good candidate for this internship in the future? What qualities/skills/interests are important to have?

If one were to do this internship, I suggest they have great patience and empathy! At the Learning Path, we strive to have the students try to solve conflicts themselves before we step in. At first, this is certainly a difficult task! Sitting back and waiting for what would happen was hard for me. However, I saw just how advanced these children’s thinking skills were as they solved problems together.

In terms of empathy, you will find times when the children can get upset over things that seem very small to you. But you should remember that these small experiences are very big for these children. They are vital to social and cognitive development so remember to be understanding!

Additional projects I worked on included painting a locker for the art hallway and crafting a necklace out of silver clay.

5. Describe how you think CHS prepared you for your internship:

CHS taught me the importance of communicating with those in positions of authority by making me comfortable talking with my teachers when I needed help or clarification on an assignment. This skill enable me to develop a close relationship with my advisor, Mrs. Hull, because I was able to speak openly with her about both areas of strength and weakness in my skill set.

6. What did you love about your internship OR what is most memorable about your experience?

During my internship, I loved having the ability to express myself in art without worrying about messing up or having to create a perfect product. These past weeks were healing for my inner child–I used to make lots of time for art when I was younger, but I lost time to develop those skills as I got older. Returning back to the art wing was inspiring and calming, and I’m so happy to be able to take home my silver necklace as a way to remember this time.

7. Who would be a good candidate for this internship in the future? What qualities/skills/interests are important to have?

Candidates for this internship must be proactive because you often have to analyze a situation and determine the best way for you to help, especially since everyone is often already busy trying to do their part. I also believe that having a respect and appreciation for art is more important for success in this internship than having the most developed skills in art. Certainly having both is wonderful, but I would advise future students to not be deterred from working with the art department if they do not feel like the best artists yet. Senior internship is a time for growth and new experiences, which I certainly gained over the past month.

1. My name is:

Sydney Hnatov

2. I interned at:

Chatham High School with Mrs. Russo in the theater department.

3. My internship experiences was (one or more words to describe it):

Challenging, somewhat stressful but extremely rewarding and valuable.

4. Describe your role and responsibilities during your internship:

My role during my internship was to mostly organize the prop and costume closets, as well as direct, film, and edit a mockumentary for a theater class. I spent a lot of time both in and out of school working on things for my internship, predominantly for the mockumentary. When not doing any of the jobs previously mentioned, I would ask Mrs. Russo for other responsibilities and tasks to complete.

5. Describe how you think CHS prepared you for your internship:

Chatham High School prepared me for this internship by giving me experience with grappling multiple tasks at once, and being able to complete work efficiently. As a student who was in multiple honors and AP courses over my four years in high school, I had to learn how to keep track of all of my work and develop strategies to effectively get everything completed on time. These skills were also put to use during my internship. I think that without the practice and experience I got from high school, I would not have been nearly as prepared and productive during my internship.

6. What did you love about your internship OR what is most memorable about your experience?

Something I loved about my internship is that I was able to work with other interns and students throughout. All three interns who were with Mrs. Russo were tasked with working together to organize the prop and costume closet which made the experience more fun, but also gave us experience in collaboration. I also loved working with Mrs. Russo to complete tasks as she has been my teacher for the past four years, so it was interesting to see and interact with her in a different space.

7. Who would be a good candidate for this internship in the future? What qualities/skills/interests are important to have?

Someone who would be a good candidate for this internship next year would be anyone who has taken Video or TV Production in high school, even more so if they have taken Honors Short Films. These classes really prepared me for this internship as they gave me filming experience and knowledge, as well as giving me practice with working with people and directing. Besides this though, for this internship you need to be able to effectively communicate with others and be able to remain calm, cool, and collected.

2. I interned at: Chatham High School for the Mathematics Department. My mentor was the AP Calculus BC and Honors Pre-calculus teacher, Mr. Lynott.

3. My internship experience was an incredibly eye-opening experience.

4. Describe your role and responsibilities during your internship: Each day ran from 8:00am to 3:00pm. The morning began with extra help sessions: during this time, I worked individually with students to answer questions and guide them through test corrections. At 8:20am, Mr. Lynott assigned us tasks to complete by the end of the day. Those tasks included re-typing his AP Calculus BC warm-ups, quizzes, and exams; changing test questions; writing new versions of tests; making answer keys; and grading the Pre-calculus check-ups, quizzes, exams, and the Calculus BC quizzes.

5. Describe how you think CHS prepared you for your internship: My time at Chatham High School fostered my ability to converse freely with adults/teachers and predicting their needs. By working as a lab assistant for the CHS Chemistry department for two years, I grew familiar with this type of work. Additionally, learning alongside high school students of different grades in different classes made it easy to work with the unfamiliar students one-on-one during these past four weeks.

6. What did you love about your internship OR what is most memorable about your experience? I loved the fulfillment from finishing our tasks so quickly and meticulously than expected that Mr. Lynott had to search for more tasks to assign to us. My favorite part of this internship was having this opportunity to work closely alongside Mr. Lynott with Ken. Shadowing Mr. Lynott has given me an even greater appreciation of his work ethic.

7. Who would be a good candidate for this internship in the future? What qualities/skills/interests are important to have? In the future, any students interested in pursuing jobs in education, considering mathematics as their post-secondary education major, or even those who purely enjoy solving math problems would be a good candidate for interning for the mathematics department at CHS. The most important skills future interns must have include patience, flexibility, and most importantly, a passion for math.

Someone who has previously taking a class with Mr. Mariano since it is important to be confident in using lab equipment & design software.

I would recommend having an interest in pursuing a career in technology/ architecture/ engineering.

8. Any last thoughts or reflections about your internship you want to share?

I highly recommend interning with Mr. Mariano. I frequently received new tasks and was rarely sitting in a desk for over an hour, which was a refreshing shift from the typical classroom environment. Mr. Mariano is also someone who really loves what he does and is fun to work with, often sharing valuable ideas and perspectives surrounding education and technological fields.

Fun and very eye opening. I enjoyed learning about a lot of things I didn't know I was interested in before.

During my internship, I had different roles for inside and outside. Outside, I worked in the garden and courtyards at school. I planted new plants, worked on the irrigation system, pruned trees, picked berries and flowers, and fertilized the garden. Inside I worked on creating and finding new content for the horticulture class that will be taught next year.

5. Describe how you think CHS prepared you for internship

CHS definitely prepared me in terms of communicating with others. I have worked in so many different group projects and tasks over the years that when it came time to work with the teachers, I wasn't afraid to ask questions.

6. What did you love about your internship

I loved learning about the different plants in the garden. I had no idea that we had been growing garlic and lemons in the garden. It was so eye opening to see all these things. Going forward, I hope I can identify these plants outside of school.

7. Who would be a good candidate for this internship in the future? What qualities/skills/interests are important to have?

I think anyone who is hard working, has good organization skills, and can communicate well with others would be a good candidate for this internship. Theres a lot of planning that goes into what goes in the garden beds since theres only so much space. So this position definitely requires organization. Additionally there were a lot of things I was confused about in the beginning but just sticking with it and not being afraid to ask questions helped me a lot.

7. Who would be a good candidate for this internship in the future? What qualities/skills/interests are important to have? A good candidate for this internship would probably be interested in healthcare. It is important to be interested in the work, or else it can get boring when there is a long day filled with dental cleanings. You should also be organized and on top of everything so you can manage doing multiple tasks at the same time.

3. My internship experience was creative, fun, and interactive

4. My role in my internship was mainly to direct and edit a theater mockumentary made by the theater 2 class and organize the props and costumes for upcoming productions.

5. CHS prepared me for my internship from the organization skills I have learned throughout high school, applying leadership skills while organizing the mockumentary cast, and my film knowledge from the video classes I have taken. There were many skills that my classes have taught me which I carried throughout my internship and it especially made the directing process easier.

6. What I loved most about my internship was collaborating with the actors in the mockumentary. I was able to work with them in coming up with creative ideas and organizing scenes which really gave me an idea of the film world. This is important for my future career interests and it was really fun being a part of a team in the creative process.

7. A good candidate for this internship would be someone interested in film as a career and with previous film experience. It takes a lot of work and knowledge in film and while being independent in the directing and editing process.

That being said, I think that a good candidate should also be flexible. An average day in a fourth grade classroom includes many unplanned mishaps as well as unplanned duties, so future interns must be able to prepare for anything that this internship throws at them.

1. My name is: Addison Barrett

2. I interned at: The Chatham Club

3. My internship experiences was (one or more words to describe it): extremely eye opening and inspiring

4. Describe your role and responsibilities during your internship: During my internship I had several different roles. These varied from working the front desk to shadowing trainers on the gym floor. Oftentimes, I found myself doing odd jobs around the club like hanging up posters, blowing up pilates balls, or writing up workouts for future clients of the day.

4. Describe how you think CHS prepared you for your internship:

CHS 100% prepared me for my internship. A lot of my work in the day was based on conversation and it was extremely important for me to be able to handle conversations with people ranging in ages from 12 years old to one client being 93 years old. Being acclimated to a lot of group work in high school allowed me to help train individuals and groups in varied settings. At many of the classes like bootcamp, it was important to speak loudly and clearly, so that everyone could understand what you were saying and how to do a specific job. This reminded me of presenting in class and getting up in front of an audience which we do a lot at Chatham.

5. What did you love about your internship OR what is most memorable about your experience?

I love meeting new people at my internship. Many of the members I had met in the past as I do workout at the Chatham Club multiple times a week, but rarely in the mornings because of school. Seeing and meeting a different group of people was so much fun. One of the best experiences was helping this one woman Mary , who is 82 years old workout. She works so hard and really gives every workout her all. She gave me so much great life advice and was so invested in my lacrosse career. When I told her my team had won the state championship she nearly started to cry. It was just so awesome to form a connection with someone who is decades older than me. Over the course of the month, I realized how much we had in common even though we were from totally different age groups.

6. Who would be a good candidate for this internship in the future? What qualities/skills/interests are important to have?

It is extremely important to be personable in this job. A lot of the time, when people enter the club, you are the first person they see. Especially on days when someone might not have the motivation to be in the gym, it is important to be able to strike up a conversation and lighten their mood. I have really learned that you don’t need to be in the best shape to be the best trainer, rather you need to be able to motivate and help someone understand how and why they do the exercise they do. The Chatham Club is not an intimidating environment whatsoever and truly feels like a family. I highly recommend Chatham high schoolers working here in the future.

Southern Blvd Elementary School Intern - Anna Cody

# data[].attributes.body
1. My name is Anna Cody

2. I interned at Southern Boulevard Elementary School in a Kindergarten Classroom

3. My internship experiences was truly unforgettable and something i am so grateful to have been apart of

4. My role as an intern in the classroom was to assist the students with guidance as they learned academically and developed their fine motor skills. On the playground and in the lunchroom I helped the children grow their social skills and strengthen their problem solving abilities. A lot is going on individually with each kid that the teacher cannot always catch while directing the class as a whole. My job was to monitor the overall well being of each student during the school day

5. I took the classes Sociology and AP Psychology offered at CHS, and I think these courses really prepared me to work in a kindergarten classroom. These kids are very young, and are learning and growing so much. Children are a lot less developed than someone my age, and I was taught how to approach situations with children through the classes I took at CHS.

6. I loved being able to work with children during my internship. It was so amazing to watch them read and write at such a young age. One of the students started the year speaking only Spanish, and it is truly amazing to hear him now speak all english. I have formed such a close bond with these children in the short time we have spent together.

7. I think that anyone looking to be an elementary education major in college would be a good candidate for this internship. It required a LOT of patience to work with such young children but it was definitely worth it! I never expected a group of Kindergarteners to become some of my favorite people.

5. Describe how you think CHS prepared you for your internship: Being a part of theater classes and extracurricular activities at CHS helped prepare me to understand, engage in, and complete every task. The communication skills I developed throughout high school (including working with others on group projects or assessments) was extremely helpful in completing this internship, as the majority of the time we were constantly communicating with each other and the volunteers.

6. What did you love about your internship OR what is most memorable about your experience? Because my non-profit company is actually performing our show in the playhouse in a few weeks, we helped create the actual set for our own production. Seeing it all come together was incredibly rewarding, especially considering that we have less experience behind the scenes rather than onstage. We also got to smash old wood with a hammer (safely, of course!) which was very fun.

7. Who would be a good candidate for this internship in the future? What qualities/skills/interests are important to have? Anyone who has interest in onstage or offstage theater, social media and outreach work, or even construction would be a great candidate. Because we covered so many topics and areas of work, this internship would be great for a diverse range of students who wish to have a fun time in a laid-back environment, while also completing real work that has a genuine impact.

6. What did you love about your internship OR what is most memorable about your experience?: Getting to hear about Mr. Bryson's journey into teaching.

7. Who would be a good candidate for this internship in the future? What qualities/skills/interests are important to have?: Being hard-working and organized though also being able to think on your feet and adapt to new projects Mr. Bryson thinks of.

8. Any last thoughts or reflections?: I'm very thankful for the experience and greatly enjoyed my time.

1. My name is: Tanisi Gupta

2. I interned at: Chatham High Schools Art Department

3. My internship experiences was (one or more words to describe it): creative and rewarding

4. Describe your role and responsibilities during your internship: We organized and displayed the School District of the Chathams Art Show: setting up the framework and the panels while also tabling at the event. The packaging of art pieces and distributing them was a task afterward. We helped with the general upkeep of the art room which included taking inventory of supplies, cleaning and organizing the cabinets, clearing the bookshelves, and checking paint. We also helped in performing administrative tasks such as sending out emails, searching for ideas for future projects, and displaying the Google Sites AP Portfolios. Lastly, we were able to paint a locker and work on making metal jewelry from silver clay.

5. Describe how you think CHS prepared you for your internship: It was very helpful to have a lot of prior art room experience. The general knowledge of where the supplies were kept and how they were organized and handled was a big help. Being able to collaborate with the other interns and communicate with our art teachers efficiently was also very helpful since we already had shared experiences with each other.

6. What did you love about your internship OR what is most memorable about your experience? Having a community of other interns to bounce ideas off of and collaborate with on projects and the same tasks was something I enjoyed. It made working feel more comfortable since it was usually more than one of us who was working on the same task. Painting the locker door was a fun collaborative project and might be the most memorable experience.

7. Who would be a good candidate for this internship in the future? What qualities/skills/interests are important to have? Someone who has an interest in expressing their creativity should be a good candidate. Being artistically talented is not a requirement, whether they would like to contribute through a form of art or ideas works just as efficiently. Someone who is vigilant in the things that they are doing is necessary since there can be room for error. Patience and handling things with care and organization is important as well as being a hard worker in general and volunteering to do things.

8. Any last thoughts or reflections about your internship you want to share? (if not, do not include in your video)

It was a very memorable experience and I would recommend it to anyone.

1. My name is: Annabelle Himstreet

2. I interned at: Lafayette Avenue School with Mr. Kermick

3. My internship experience was (one or more words to describe it): hands-on and informative.

4. Describe your role and responsibilities during your internship: During my internship, I worked one-on-one with 4th and 5th-grade students on STEM and design-based projects. This often looked like helping 4th-grade students design their 3-D printed LAF keychains on their Chromebooks or working with 5th-graders to build their stomp rockets. During my internship, I had to learn by doing each assignment and activity myself so that I was fully prepared to teach it to students.

5. Describe how you think CHS prepared you for your internship: Chatham High School taught me to adapt to various situations while maintaining strong execution. Whether that was through a group project or research assignments, at CHS I learned how to pivot and work with certain circumstances. This type of adaptability prepared me to work in Mr. Kermick’s classroom because every 40 minutes, I was challenged with a new class and, therefore, had to teach lessons in a different way that met each child’s needs.

6. What did you love about your internship OR what is most memorable about your experience? I loved getting the opportunity to work in a classroom environment because that is an experience I most likely would not have gotten otherwise. Each day presented new students and new challenges, and I loved working with students in a way that met them where they were academically, socially, and mentally.

7. Who would be a good candidate for this internship in the future? What

qualities/skills/interests are important to have? When working in an elementary school, naturally, you have to like working with kids. Even if you do not plan on going into teaching, being able to work one-on-one with children is really important for this internship. Moreover, you have to be willing to learn new skills as you go through this internship. For example, prior to interning with Mr. Kermick, I had very little experience with 3-D design programs such as SketchUp or TinkerCad, but I taught myself how to use these platforms in order to legitimately help the students work on their projects. Overall, having an open mind, being adaptive, and being good with kids are three key qualities to have if you want to intern at Lafayette.

8. Any last thoughts or reflections about your internship you want to share? (if not, do not include in your video)

Something I was not necessarily expecting with my internship is that the first week-and-a-half, give or take, is awkward. That is completely normal because the kids don’t really know you and you are still figuring out your role in the classroom. One way that I mitigated this is by trying to advocate for myself by asking my mentor teacher how I could be more helpful or expressing an interest in learning what the students are working on so that I could serve as a stronger resource for them when they ask for help.

It was so much fun to help the kids during school and also play with them during recess and breaks. One of the most memorable moments for me was being a part of field day. This was really special because it was something I experienced when I was their age, so helping out and watching the kids on an exciting day for them was really memorable.

7. Who would be a good candidate for this internship in the future? What qualities/skills/interests are important to have? A good candidate for this internship would definitely be someone who has experience and enjoys working with kids.

CHS also gave me the communication skills I needed to be successful in my internship. There was a lot of communication with my mentors and fellow interns that I was well prepared for.

What did you love about your internship OR what is most memorable about your experience? I loved that I was able to stay creative during my internship and I was also able to continue to make art during my internship.

Who would be a good candidate for this internship in the future? What qualities/skills/interests are important to have?

3. My internship experiences was (one or more words to describe it): Engaging and interactive

4. Describe your role and responsibilities during your internship: During my internship my role was to assist the PTs in any way that they needed and to observe their appointments with patients. I brought the patients ice packs, heat packs, the Game Ready Machine (which is a compression and ice pack combined), and other equipment that the patients needed. I also helped by doing the laundry of the towels and pillow cases. As I became more confident in reading the short hand that they use on the charts, I was able to guide patients in what exercises they had to do and I followed up by taking notes on their charts.

5. Describe how you think CHS prepared you for your internship: I think CHS prepared me well for the internship because of the many clubs that I was involved in, specifically in LINKS. As a LINKS member, I am interacting with many freshman students, welcoming them into the school, and being a friendly face that they can connect with. This is similar to how I interacted with many patients at JAG - using the interpersonal skills that I learned through participating in LINKS.

6. What did you love about your internship OR what is most memorable about your experience? One aspect that I loved about my internship was how interactive it was with patients. I really enjoyed seeing the same patients 2-3 times a week and catching up with them about their lives and how their progress was. The most memorable part of my internship was interacting with the patients, either through conversation or through playing soccer/passing games. I got to meet new people, as young as 7 and as old as 93 and they were all so engaging to speak to.

7. Who would be a good candidate for this internship in the future? What qualities/skills/interests are important to have? Someone who would be a good fit for this internship would be someone who is looking to go into the PT field. However, I also think that someone who is good with interpersonal skills and making others feel heard and appreciated is important. Many patients who come in could have severe injuries so it is important to be a welcoming face so the patients feel comfortable.

2. I interned at: Sprout House Preschool

3. My internship experience was (one or more words to describe it): Eye-opening and exciting!

4. Describe your role and responsibilities during your internship:  I mainly interned under one teacher who taught kids from an age range of 3-4, but there were times where I would help out other teachers when needed. Some of the responsibilities that I had included helping setting up/cleaning up activities, helping at lunch and snack time and just generally playing and helping the kids. Outside of the classroom the school had a mini library that needed to be organized so I helped scan books and organize the shelfs. I also helped with small office tasks such as laminating and doing inventory of the supplies the school had.

5. Describe how you think CHS prepared you for your internship: I think that CHS prepared me for my internship by teaching me how to communicate with a variety of people. Not only was I working with a wide age range of kids but I was also working with adults, and being able to communicate and learn how to speak to both adults and young kids was really important.

6. What did you love about your internship OR what is most memorable about your experience?: One of my favorite parts of interning at the preschool was just seeing all the different ways the kids would interact with one another. It was really interesting seeing their group dynamics and the way they play with each other. I also just really loved creating connections with all of the kids and being able to help them. I remember that after a few days the kids would be really excited every time I came into the classroom and that was just a really heartwarming experience.

7. Who would be a good candidate for this internship in the future? What qualities/skills/interests are important to have?: I think if someone were to intern at sprout house I think that not only should you be interested in working with kids, but I also think that you should have a great amount of patience and be able to talk to young kids! There are times where the kids won’t listen to instructions or they might not want to do certain things so it's important that you are patient and understanding with them. Being able to talk to young kids is also important, they might not understand certain things or ask a lot of questions so you need to reword and even repeat yourself a lot of times.
