CEHS students have the opportunity to participate in a community based internship during the school day. Intern ELO students will be matched up with a local business that aligns with their career interests, and they will report to the intern site every other day for a set block in their schedule.
Interns report back to the ELO classroom on set days throughout the semester, and on these days, students reflect on their experiences and work on professional skills such as scheduling and time management, professional communication, resume and cover letter writing, and budgeting.
The ELO Coordinator stays in constant contact with intern hosts and visits the interns at their sites during the semester.
Here are some of the places our students have interned at thus far:
The Cape Elizabeth Land Trust
Cape Integrative Health
H20 Fitness
The Vetrinary and Rehabiliation Center of Cape Elizabeth
