Learning Beyond the Classroom 22 Local Businesses Mentor Red Bank Charter School Students RED BANK, NJ (May 11, 2018) - Eighth-grade students at Red Bank Charter School gained invaluable skills during a school-year internship program with 22 participating businesses and nonprofit organizations in the greater Red Bank area. The program recently culminated with a dinner reception at the school for participating students, their parents and business mentors. Students shared highlights of their individual learning experiences in brief presentations during the program. “At Red Bank Charter School, we believe education goes well beyond the classroom walls,” said Principal Meredith Pennotti. “We are so grateful to local businesses for providing such rich learning opportunities for these young scholars. Our community partners make this program possible.” At the start of the school year, each of the 20 students was assigned an internship based on their career interests, learning and work styles. They spent one day a week through the end of April learning about a specific career under the guidance of mentors. As part of the program, which began 18 year ago, students develop resumes, practice interview skills and capture their work experiences every week in their journals.
