Rising Earth: Human Impact Education is looking to recruit artistically minded high schoolers interested in creative arts and the environment, for our free hybrid summer internship. Rising Earth is a nonprofit dedicated to educating future leaders on environmental issues and actions. We believe shifting culture towards awareness and reciprocity is key to healing the planet and ourselves. In our programs, graphic journalism and creativity are at the heart of the internships. Exploring nature as an urban youth and learning to connect inward and investigate their own personal impacts, voice, and worldview are also deeply embedded in our mission at Rising Earth. The Rising Earth team also creates graphic novels, curricula, and experiential learning opportunities that explore our human impacts on the environment– all created with feedback and piloting by youth from our programs.

Our 8-week internship gives urban youth opportunities to work in a collaborative space where their voices are heard and honored, connect with nature, and cultivate their understanding of human impact’s role on the environment through different creative mediums. In addition to our program, we are excited to share that this summer’s internship will be piloting our first Rising Earth Graphic Short Story Prize Contest!

Deadline to apply is May 31st, 2022. Here is the link to apply: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSchx3YXPQu29b–gTs96JH0AXhDVSBn-rQI_jgcGfNjhPMK_g/viewform

Greetings DVC,

Da Vinci Communications will hosting a Senior Spirit Week  starting next week, May 9th-May 13th:

Monday:  All seniors wear purple

Tuesday:  Throwback (Dress up like you did your Freshman, Sophomore or Junior Year)

Wednesday: Rep your future (wear college, career or military gear)

Thursday: Dress up as your favorite teacher or someone who helped you get to where you are today

Friday: Inside Out Day (Dress as the emotions you are feeling about graduating or college)

On the Wednesday of our Senior Spirit week, we will be hosting a College Signing Day event to recognize students who plan to attend any college, university, community college, vocational or training program or to join the military after high school.

During our College Signing Day, Seniors will receive presentations from:

• Financial Aid Office Representative who will talk about work-study opportunities, how to appeal financial aid offers and how to access scholarships.
• Resident Director who will speak on how to obtain a Resident Advisor (RA) position.
• Greek Fraternities and Sororities that will talk about why they joined their organization and how it has helped them thrive in college.

In addition, Seniors will also be “signing off” which college/career/military opportunity they will pursue after high school. We ask that all Seniors rep their future by wearing college, career or military gear on the day of the event.

Congratulations Class of 2022!

The Senior Class Counseling Team,

Ms. Artia Thomas 

Ms. Monique Aldrete
