Summer Internships

April 13, 2021 by Natasha Morrison

Hi Da Vinci Students and Families,

We are excited to offer internship opportunities and career experiences this summer! Due to the ongoing pandemic, most internships will continue to be remote.  Companies are still determining how/when to bring their full-time staff back to in-person work, therefore are unable to host interns onsite this summer. Please see below and keep an eye out for application updates/timelines.

 Summer Career Development Options:

(Students will receive 5 summer school credits for any of these options)

  • Internship through the LA Chamber of Commerce Bixel Exchange LA Tech Talent Pipeline: Apply for an internship through this incredible program by June 15th.  They have internship positions (paid and unpaid; virtual and in-person) at companies like Snapchat, Verizon Wireless, Kaiser Permanente, and Boingo Wireless. Find out more information and apply HERE.  If you are admitted, please email Natasha so she can add you to the internship summer school programming.
  • CoLabL Talent Accelerator (Project Consultancy): Students will work with a team of other Da Vinci students and corporate mentors on several real projects aligned to employer and industry needs alongside ​CoLabL​ Talent Accelerator. The project consultancies will run from July 6th-August 6th and be 5-10 hours/week of work.  
  • Outside internship: Are you able to secure your own internship (this can be in-person or remote)?  Let Natasha know so she can make sure you earn summer school credit for it!  She will verify with the employer and onboard you onto the Da Vinci summer internship programming.

Other details:

  • ELIGIBILITY: 
    • Open to all grade levels, but students are expected to communicate with industry partners and Natasha independent of parents/guardian.  Students should communicate promptly and professionally via email.
    • All students applying for project consultancies or Bixel Exchange internships must have an up-to-date, error-free resume. You can view resume resources here. 
    • Application review will include a historical grades review

DVC Welcomes a Service Dog to Campus

April 12, 2021 by Erin D'Souza

Dear DVC Parents and Guardians,

This message is to inform you that there will be a service dog in our school assisting one of our students. This service dog is a trained companion for the student and is able to assist him/her in many of the daily routines while learning at school.

This certified service dog is trained and the student’s right to have a certified service dog is protected under Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act (“ADA”), and/or Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (“Section 504”) and therefore can be with the handler in all aspects of his/her education.

There will be an introduction at the school to inform students how a service animal will fit into daily school routines. All students will be informed as to proper procedures around the animal because the animal is not a pet but a certified working service dog or therapy animal while at school.

We anticipate the service dog will be a benefit to the student’s learning and we look forward to this new addition to our school community.

Thank you for your understanding and support. Should you have any questions or concerns, please contact the school office.

Sincerely,

Erin D’Souza

Principal

Week 30 Begins Tomorrow

April 12, 2021 by Erin D'Souza

Happy Monday, DVC Families!

School resumes tomorrow (Tuesday, 4/13). As a reminder, we are continuing with our distance learning program. All classes will continue to take place online through Zoom. We are not offering classes on campus, but we are offering supplemental opportunities for students to come to campus starting tomorrow. If you do not know if you are scheduled to come to campus, please reach out to me (edsouza@davincischools.org) or Andrew Daramola (adaramola@davincischools.org) and we can assist you with your request.

The DVC website (tinyurl.com/dvcwebsite) is a great resource to use. There is a new “Return to Campus” section that I would encourage you to check out. Please note that all students coming onto campus will be required to complete this daily health screening: DVC Daily Health Screening Link for Students

We are excited to welcome our seniors back to campus on Wednesday, 4/14 or Thursday, 4/15 to decorate their graduation caps. Seniors should sign up here to participate: Senior Cap Decorating Sign Up

Wishing you a great week,

Erin
