Summer Internship Opportunities
Mother of Mercy High School is pleased to offer summer internship opportunities for the summer of 2013 to current freshman, sophomores and juniors.
The Social Studies department thanks these organizations for their dedication and support to Mercy and our Social Studies Internship Program. The Social Studies department recommends applicants to the internship program. These organizations have the final decision in accepting the Mercy intern as a good fit for their program. Most programs will span 4-6 weeks over a period from June 17- August 2. Internships with City Council and City Initiatives may begin earlier to accommodate Council’s session. Specific schedules and duties will be discussed with representatives from the organization. Transportation to and from internship sites is the responsibility of the student.
