[quote=Anonymous]DC goes to a large public school and the last 2 months of senior year they spend at an "internship." I use air quotes since many are just part-time jobs that would be typical for a high schooler. My husband went to the same high school, and this was an option for seniors at the time, but not a requirement like it is now, so even 20+ years ago this was happening on some level. My personal opinion is this creates an unrealistic expectation for students starting in high school. There's also definitely a push by students in other grades to try to get an 'in' before senior year, whether it's job shadowing or outreach.[/quote]
