Businesses: Host a Student Intern!
Westlake High School seniors are seeking internship opportunities working in local business and professional areas. As the program is only in its second year of implementation, there is a growing need for internship opportunities.
Some of the areas that our students are hoping to secure internships with include: Marketing/Advertising, Nursing, Veterinary Science, Physical and Occupational Therapy, Pediatrics/Obstetrics, Nutrition and Dietary Science. Students are exploring many other areas of interest as well.
If you, or someone you know, works in a field that can support a student-intern, please call the WHS office at 769-8311. For more information, see the WHS Senior Experience Internship Booklet.
