Experience the Difference

Emery Interns

We’re delighted to announce “Emery Interns” – a pilot program that will provide rising Emery seniors with two-week professional internships in the Summer of 2025.  The School has had previous internship programs, but we believe this newly-refined model will be more effective.  We’re excited because we think “Emery Interns” will not only be valuable for our students – giving them meaningful experience in real-world, professional environments – but will also be good for strengthening the EWS community, as hosts come from existing families, alumni, alumni families, trustees and donors.
