During 9-12 week apprenticeships each semester, students learn about a wide variety of subjects such as the scientific method, computer modeling, geology, animation and the training of assistance dogs. “My favorite part of Citizen Schools is the apprenticeships because they let me see what people do professionally and I can see what my friends are good at”, said one student.
Now they’re ready to “teach-back”! The students and I would like to extend a special invitation to you. We hope to see you there! JOIN US FOR FUN, FOOD, CELEBRATION AND MORE!
