Dear Metro West Community Member,
Are you interested in helping our high school students learn about the real world of work?
In an effort to support our students on the path to become college and career ready we are exploring community service and internship opportunities. These opportunities would allow our students to actively participate in possible career interests, discover their likes and dislikes, and gain some experience in the workplace.
Today, colleges are increasingly interested in students who have completed meaningful community service projects and/or who may have explored career options through informational interviewing, job shadowing and/or internships.
The HHS School Council is looking for adults in our community who are willing to be contacted by a high school student to learn about the type of work they do and in some cases provide an opportunity for a student to job shadow for a half or full day. We are also looking for people who would consider hosting a student for a community service project or an internship.
Can you help? Please respond to HHS-School-Council@hopkinton.k12.ma.us with your interest and to learn more. Please include your name, job title, email address and phone number.
Thank you for helping our students explore opportunities outside of the classroom.
Evan Bishop,
Hopkinton High School Principal
