January 8 to February 5 

For new Interns:

Your number one goal this during this time frame is to secure an internship site and get all the paperwork filled out, turned in and your orientation completed. (Must have an internship secured and begun by February 6th to be on track with hours) 

• Assignments:
• Resume
• Signed Syllabus 
• Pre-Intern Self-Evaluation 
• Meet Our Interns Slide  - Make sure your picture is professional looking. It could end up on our website. :)

  • Signed B1-6 - Hard Copy must be turned in
  • Internship/Volunteer Training Agreement - Hard Copy must be turned in

For continuing Interns:

• If you are continuing at your Term 1 internship site, you can start your hours immediately. Work with your internship site to establish your new schedule and let Mrs. Gravatt know what it is. You will be required to complete 80 hours, since you have all your other course work completed. After you have completed 80 hours, any additional hours can be used for Community Service. 

Below is the TENTATIVE Spring 2024 Internship Schedule. Sites and interns work out their specific schedule with the goal of achieving 6 to 8 hours a week. Students and sites work together to determine holiday and spring break schedule. A total of 80 hours is needed for the class. 

Tentative (subject to change) internship weeks are:

Week 1                January 29 to February 4

Week 2                February 5 to February 11

Week 3               February 12 to February 18 (February 12 holiday)

Week 4              February 19 to February 25  (February 19 holiday)

Week 5               February 26 to March 3

Week 6               March 4 to March 10

Week 7               March 11 to March 17  (March 14, 15 finals)

Week 8              Spring Break March 18 to March 24 

Week 9              March 25 to March 31   (March 29 holiday)

Week 10             April 1 to April 7 

After April 7, students can do make-up hours if needed, but this time is built into the class for the students to work on their final project for the class. Any hours accumulated over the 80 hours can be used towards Community Service.
