CTE Internship

Students are responsible for their own internship placement prior to the start of the course. The Career Development Coordinator (Ms. Alford) or their school counselor may assist, but is not responsible for finding an internship host for the student. 

Students may participate in paid or unpaid internships

Students must have reliable transportation to and from the work site

The CDC or School Counselor has the right to validate the integrity and safety of the internship site

Interns are representing JCPS while participating in this course. If a student has discipline issues and/or excessive absences as outlined by JCPS Board Policy during the semester prior to the internship, principal approval will be required before being considered for the course

Space is limited. If more eligible students apply than are allowed in the course, a lottery will be used to determine placement. Seniors needing the course for graduation will be given priority

Students may be expected to attend in-person meetings with the CDC throughout the course as needed

Students will be notified by their CDC or School Counselor regarding placement in the course

If required paperwork is not completed within the first 10 days of the semester, the student will risk being removed from the course
