Welcome!

You've come to the right place for up to date information about internship, volunteer and job opportunities, as well as college application and scholarship deadlines, field trips, and events happening on campus. You'll also find posts on how to be as successful as possible when planning for your future!

At the bottom of this page you will find a google calendar with information about events, application deadlines, and program information. I find it easiest to navigate the calendar in "agenda" view, which you can switch it to by clicking the "agenda" tab in the upper right hand corner of the calendar.

In addition to the blog, we frequently send out emails with information that is then posted on the blog. Whether your a student, parents, or community member please feel free to join the list serve! You can do this by emailing me the message "add to list serve": macdanme@hsd401.org.

If you have any questions or need any support please stop into the LTI Office or College and Career Center, send an email, or call.

Culminating Project/Internship/Community Service Opportunity: Become a Blogger

Please find information below that was sent to me about an interesting community involvement opportunity for High School Students:

Hi, My name is Anita Chung, a Western Washington resident from Kirkland. I have co-founded a nonprofit youth literary online community, www.ponderlounge.org. We worked with a number of Seattle-based as well as some international teaching artists to develop an innovative, highly original, slightly academic approach to celebrate and facilitate the art of creative writing among young teens.

Our site launched last October. Membership has grown steadily, high-quality submissions have been coming in, and contests have been successful. To kick off our launch, we have an excellent internship opportunity for high school students interested in writing. The Blogger is a highly engaging online internship program; interns are empowered to define the daily lives of our original characters found on the site. To find out more, please click here.

Due to our nonprofit nature, such an internship may also be considered community service hours if applicable. We also welcome senior students to consider this opportunity for their culminating project.

I'd appreciate your comments/questions as well as your help to spread the word about PonderLounge. We would love to have interns and/or receive submissions from Highline High!

Regards,

Anita Chung
