Pursuing Real Opportunities (PRO) is a school sponsored program that allows seniors in high school to intern within the Amarillo and Canyon community. Through the course, students have the ability to contact businesses, interview and carry out involved internships in which they truly experience a particular field.
The deadline to attend a meeting or pick materials for the 2012-2013 year has passed, but students who did both must turn in the application, essay and seven teacher evaluations to Denise Logan in room 106W by no later than March 1st.
“PRO is an opportunity for high school students to get ahead by exploring a chosen career,” Mrs. Logan said. “Too often students make a choice in college about what they think they want to do, but have no idea what really goes on day by day in that field. PRO allows students to try it out before throwing money at something that may not be a fit for them.”
