A new business internship program was announced during the recent North Judson-San Pierre School Board meeting.
Corporation Treasurer Dalton Tunis announced this is the first semester the corporation has offered the program. He added it is a two semester program where the first semester students build their resume, learn how to submit resumes and go through a traditional interview process.
Tunis said the student who is chosen as the best candidate will be awarded a position at the business manager’s office and will be presented at the school board meeting in December. That student will work at the business manager’s office during their scheduled class throughout the second semester.
The student will work on a semester-long project to present to the business manager, superintendent, principal, business teacher and one to two board members. The project will be based on what the student thinks the school needs or should have to better help the school and its students.
Tunis said this is an opportunity to teach kids how to prepare themselves for life after school.
