Announcements From Real World Learning Director (2.10.2023)

February 10, 2023 by Emily Shapiro

For students interested in pursuing a career as a health professional:

The Turner-UCLA Allied Health Internship Program is a week-long summer internship for students to gain exposure and build interest in careers in the allied health professions. During the internship, students will stay at UCLA dorms and rotate through different departments at the UCLA Ronald Reagan Medical Center, attend guest speaker panels, and workshops, and engage in supervised student life at the UCLA Campus. High school juniors are encouraged to apply. The program is free. A Zoom Information Session will take place on Wednesday, February 22nd from 4:00 to 5:00 pm. Zoom registration and flier. 

For students interested in public relations and journalism opportunities:

The Los Angeles Feminist Majority Foundation is seeking interns for their Public Relations and Journalism departments. Interns would work directly with Ms. editors to research, fact-check information, write blog posts, and curate content for the Ms. Magazine website and print magazine. Interns would also do research, conduct outreach to media contacts, develop press materials, and promote the organization on social media. They’re looking for bright, energetic, and resourceful people interested in learning how the editorial side of a nonprofit magazine operates–from the inception of an idea to the final printed product–and gaining new feminist perspectives. The deadline to apply is March 31. Click here for more information. 

For students interested in internship opportunities:

This opportunity is recommended for graduating seniors interested in tourism and hospitality. The Great Wolf Summer Hospitality Internship Program is a 10-week program that provides high school graduates with a meaningful experience that compliments their current coursework. Through an experiential and structured approach to learning, interns will gain real-life experience in the hospitality and entertainment industry. The program will include a job shadow week to provide exposure and learning of other disciplines across the brand. At the end of the program, participants will also complete a term project and present it to the lodge leadership team. Upon successful completion of the program, interns will be considered for future internships, full-time positions, and/or Great Wolf Management Development Program (MDP).

National School Counseling Week- Day 5

February 10, 2023 by Jennifer Barba

Good morning.

Today is the final day of National School Counseling Week. We have enjoyed talking with you this week about “dreaming big.” Whether it’s your dreams for yourself or for our school, dreams are the fuel that keep us moving forward.

Author Carl Sandburg said, “Nothing happens unless first we dream.” Take a minute, and think about your dreams. Dreams don’t have to be about a career. Dreams can be about feelings or even helping someone else achieve their dreams. What’s one thing you can do today that moves you one step closer to a dream – any dream? Write it down or draw a picture of it. Look at it when you need encouragement.

Our dream for you – for everyone one of you – is that you feel successful here at our school and that you learn all the skills you need to reach your goals in life. We are here for you every day.

Thank you for celebrating National School Counseling Week with us. Have a safe and fun weekend!

National School Counseling Week- Day 4

February 9, 2023 by Jennifer Barba

Good morning.

This is your DVC counselors, and we are still celebrating National School Counseling Week. As we talk about “dreaming big,” how can our school help YOU dream big? Yesterday, we mentioned that our dream was that everyone in our school feels like they belong and that we create a welcoming and inclusive community together. When we build that kind of environment, our school is even more ready to help you discover and work toward your dreams.

One of our goals here is to help ensure you’re ready for what comes next –whether that’s college or a career. Did you know that starts as early as kindergarten? As you engage in your school work, you’re discovering what gives you joy, what sparks your interest and what your talents are.

At our school, we want to ensure you have access to learning and extracurricular opportunities to help you dream your dreams. Singer Suki Waterhouse said, “Don’t stop yourself from doing something you want to do because of what others might think. Only you know yourself best.”

Is anything stopping you from trying something new? A new challenge could be the first step to discovering your dreams. If you’re uncomfortable about stepping out of your comfort zone, let’s talk about it. We can help.

National School Counseling Week- Day 3

February 8, 2023 by Artia Thomas

Good morning. This week, we are celebrating National School Counseling Week. As you know, our theme for this week is “School Counselors: Helping Students Dream Big.” Today, I’d like to talk about our dreams for our school.
Our dream for our school is that every student feels supported and welcome. That we treat each other with kindness, embracing and celebrating our differences, listening and learning from each other. Author Audre Lorde said, “Tomorrow belongs to those of us who conceive of it as belonging to everyone, who lend the best of ourselves to it, and with joy.” How can you help us meet our goals for our school? Can you reach out to someone today to ensure they feel like they are part of our school community? Do you feel like you belong? Let’s talk about how we can make our school a safe and nurturing space for all of us. You know where to find us. Have a wonderful Wednesday.
