Sorry for the funky layout, but I’m taking this from an email I received. Maybe someone will be inspired to look into one of these. These are all for high school students. NASA’s is for 16+, Google’s is for graduating seniors entering college, the Smithsonian’s programs are for students entering 9th – 12th.

Most veterinarian clinics or hospitals, you can intern at 16. My equine vet told me when I was 16 I could ride with her.
That’s great. I think they are awesome opportunities. My daughter was basically an apprentice to an artist for a couple of years. It was a great experience.
