During the spring of their Junior year, all STB students participate in an off-campus, three-week learning experience as part of our Junior Internship Program.
Interns learn both on-site and through intensive seminars, helping them to prepare for the professional world, build a resume, practice on-the-job skills, and network with alums and community partners with experience in industries of interest.
Past interns have worked in fields like engineering, social service, education, health care, business, government, marketing, and more!
"The dedication of the staff at St. Bernard's has really impressed us. It is very evident, and has been proven time and time again, that they care for the whole student. They put in so much time & energy, not only teaching, but enriching and genuinely caring for the children. Our son would get lost in a crowd; he thrives when given a bit more individualized attention. STB has really helped him find his niche and he’s flourishing because of it." - STB Parent
