Leading Internships for New Knowledge
LINK represents Leading Internships for New Knowledge, but
under those words lie opportunity, hardships, excitement and anxiety; driving
each student to success. Every 11th grader attending Animas High
School will complete an internship of their choice for three weeks. From March
4th to March 22nd, AHS drops its students into the real
world and tasks them with “working” in a field of interest to them.
I have chosen to complete my LINK internship with an investment company and a non-profit that seeks to educate young people on finances. As the launch date approaches, I am preparing myself in anticipation for the experience.
I am looking forward to working with knowledgeable mentors who will teach me about how to be financially responsible so I can manage my money in college, while balancing student loans and living costs. Not only will they teach me about this specific field, they will also teach me about the working world. I hope to come back from my LINK internship with new eyes and a heightened sense of maturity.
