More Than An Intern.

hloe Yates has attended SLES since K5 and is a rising junior. Chloe is a student ambassador and an intern working with the admissions department. She hopes to learn how to be comfortable and confident when touring new families and sharpen her leadership skills. Chloe hopes to play softball in college and to one day be a sports psychologist.
St. Luke’s is happy to provide internships as they are invaluable experiences for high school students. Internships provide very specific experiences for students interested in a certain path. They not only help resumes stand out to admissions committees and future employers, but they also demonstrate that our students are spending time learning and working with others. Furthermore, internships teach important skills that students will need in any field.
According to an annual survey by the National Association of Colleges and Employers, 91 percent of employers said candidate experience is a factor in hiring decisions. Nearly half of surveyed employers wanted experience to come from internships or co-op programs.
An internship is the best way to be immersed in a real-world environment, nothing can replace hands-on experiences. We are blessed to provide Chloe with this experience to help her further develop knowledge that will benefit her in college and life.
We can’t wait to see what Chloe’s VERY BRIGHT future has in store! We are so blessed to have her as a part of our school.
