It is my goal to have every student enrolled in the Gifted and Talented Intern-Mentor Program who can be placed in an internship working with his/her mentor by as quickly as possible. Finding quality mentors in some fields can be exceedingly difficult, and, in some cases impossible given the severe shortage of mentors in those fields and extreme competition from other in-county, out-of-county, and college programs. In rare cases, students will be asked to select another class instead of the Intern-Mentor Program if he/she is not working with their mentor by September 30, 2010. Thanks you for your patience and understanding.
