Businesses Invited to Host 20-Hour Student Internships
The Shelton School District’s Internship Program is returning this year, and local businesses are invited to take part. In its first year, the program connected Shelton High School students with more than 1,200 hours of hands-on career experience. This was possible thanks to support from businesses that opened their doors and gave students opportunities to explore career pathways right here in Mason County. Employers also benefited by meeting and mentoring the next generation of talent.
The program is expanding this year to reach even more students and create additional opportunities for business partners.
