Throughout our High Tech High career, we are required to accomplish a one month real world internship experience. The internship gives students the chance to build a social network and experience the working world. Each junior at HTHCV, has to contact and interview with and organizations of interest. After doing so, we leave for a period of time, and assist to a normal day of "work".

The City of Chula Vista Recreation:The Recreation Department of the City of Chula Vista, takes on much more work than the credit given. This department is in charge of designing and leading recreational activities for their community. Some of the activities may include different forms of creative arts, dance, sports, camps, and great learning experiences. They create and run recreation facilities such as aquatics, playgrounds, sport centers, senior centers, and many more!
The amount of engagement these employees have for their community is great to see. If an organization needs funding, the Recreation center is on it. They truely enjoy what they do, and making people happy makes everything worth it. |
