1/2 day schedules internships

Anonymous
My senior dd is on a half day schedule and interning at medical office.

Is there a maximum number of hours they can intern (like 12-5 pm) and do the internship days need to be everyday?

Required Hours:
The student must complete the required hours set forth by MCPS. Currently that works out to about 5 hours
per week or 75 hours per semester. You are required to put in the time for your internship, this may mean
that you need to stay at your internship past 2:10pm to get the required number of hours. Travel to and from
your internship is not part of the time you get credit for, you receive credit for the time you spend AT your
internship.
 3 period internships = 225 hours per semester, approx. 2.25 hours per day
 2 period internships = 150 hours per semester, approx. 1.5 hours per day
 1 period internship = 75 hours per semester, approx. 45 minutes per day

"Daily attendance is required, just like a normal class. Any day that MCPS classes are held, you
are expected to attend and your attendance will be marked within the MCPS Attendance
System and at your workplace"

Is this an organized program or up to the student to find an internship?
