Senior Internships

A student tutors refugee children through his internship with The Owl & Panther Project.

All seniors at City High School participate in a community-based internship that lasts for much of the academic year. The program allows for students to have an opportunity while in high school to explore their passions, their future career options, and the world of work. The Senior Internship program is connected to the Senior Seminar class that all students take in 12th grade.
