Follow on Google News | Sagemont, a Private School in Broward, Helps Students Go the Extra Mile in planning for The Future.Sagemont offers students the opportunity to experience a taste of life in the real world before graduation. The Academic Internship Program provides students an edge in choosing a future career path.
By: Maria Ackermann/The Sagemont School Scott Payne, a Sagemont senior is currently interning at Windmill Chiropractic. Scott says, “The internship has been very helpful in understanding my career choice and has given me firsthand experience in my field of interest. It has taught me about the business side of chiropractic medicine.” Junior, Samuel Vivas, is currently doing an internship at Cleveland Clinic. Because of his involvement during the school year, he is aware of a summer program at the hospital. And because he is already a standout in the internship program, he will have a higher chance of being selected for the summer program. In addition, during the summer, many Sagemont students take advantage of various programs that will give them a competitive edge after graduation. Wilson Mourad, a Sagemont Senior interested in studying medicine, took part in the Chemistry and Biology Program at Cornell University last summer. “Studying at Cornell was one of the most worthy and enriching experiences in my life. I gained experience in time management, made choices with regard to my responsibilities, independently solved my problems and made new friends.” Mourad, who was at Cornell for 7 weeks, took a chemistry and English class and enjoyed participating in club sports. Last summer, Melissa Hewitt (10th grade) traveled to a small town just outside of Nice, France to participate in a French Language Immersion Program. With the help of her home stay family which included two teenage brothers, Melissa was able to grasp French much quicker than in her traditional classroom studies. Hewitt felt the program was a double win for her, “I not only learned a lot about the French culture, life and language; I also gained more self-confidence which will definitely benefit me in the future.” Dr. Brent Goldman, President of The Sagemont School commented, “I am very impressed by our student’s motivation to go beyond their prescribed academics and participate in a variety of very exciting internship and travel programs. These students come back with many success stories that help them as they are applying to the colleges and universities of their choice” # # # The Sagemont School is a private school serving preschool students starting at age three through high school graduation.
