Overview

Senior Experience Program

All 12th grade students participate in a Senior Experience through their Senior Experience course. Our program provides students with an opportunity to pursue and explore their natural curiosities through an internship, volunteer work or a career oriented project.  Students' real-life, authentic learning encourages the further development of college/career ready skills.  Every student works directly with a Schreiber mentor to help oversee their Experience.

Students are required to have a secured internship by the end of January (end of Semester 1).  The 45 hours begin Semester 2 (usually the last week in January) and end the last week in May.  Dedicating approximately three hours per week from February - May will allow students to earn their 45 hours.  Students may not be paid as part of their Experience.
