Oakland Tech senior Jada T. interned in a summer camp at Harbor House here in Oakland this summer, which was on the exact path toward her career goal. “We would have morning meetings, and I would lead activities for them. We would plan some stuff for them to do, we would engage the kids and come up with ideas for things for them to do, like games that they could play… I’ve worked with kids before, I had a job before that was working with kids. It’s always been something I want to do. I want to become a child psychologist. I just really want to work with kids.”

She is one of more than 400 students who did internships and presented what they learned at the Demonstration of Mastery event earlier this month. You can read more about it here: https://www.parentsquare.com/feeds/83238551 See less

A.J. M. (left) and Alfonso H. are both juniors at McClymonds High who interned on the District’s Tech Repair Team this summer. “Our whole purpose is to fix computers for everyone, for every OUSD student, to make sure they get a good education,” said A.J. “I didn’t even imagine that I was going to get into any of this at all… Pretty easy and fun work.”

A.J. and Alfonso each fixed hundreds of computers during their five week internship, and they agreed the technical education they got was only half the benefit. “Even without the hands-on stuff, cause we don’t just learn computers, we learned how to do resumes, how to send out emails, your soft skills, how to communicate properly,” said Alfonso. “You can use that in anything. It’s not necessarily just the hard skills, with the computer, you can use it with any job, any school work in general, in life.”

Maria M. is a senior at Fremont High who interned at Bay Area Medical Academy in San Francisco this summer. “I would perform technical skills like CPR (cardio-pulmonary resuscitation), finger sticks, doing eye tests, just a lot of different skills that are for phlebotomists, EKG technicians, and medical assistants, so I learned a lot… It was a little bit intimidating… but I got used to it very quickly and it was very fun… My favorite part of the internship was getting comfortable with doing patient documentations… I felt like an actual medical provider.”

Lovely H. is a senior at Oakland Tech in the Fashion Academy, so as an intern this summer she worked at Oakland Performing Arts Intensive. “It was a very good experience. I was helping the kids with costume designing, so I was able to learn a lot of new techniques from this lady named Ms. Walsh, who I was interning for. And I got like a lot of new ideas for what I’m going to do for my senior project, I’m doing a fashion show, so I have new ways that I’m going to style it. So, I’m very excited about that.”
