Paid Urban Education Internship at the Paul Cuffee School in Providence, RI

Deadline to apply: Dec. 2nd

This internship provides teaching and learning opportunities at the Paul Cuffee School in Providence, RI. The Paul Cuffee School is a public charter school, currently serving 625 students in grades K-10. The majority of the school population is from the city of Providence; most are students of color and live below the poverty level and for many English is a second language. The school is one of the top performing charter schools in the state and is a model for urban school reform initiatives.

For Winter 2012 (Jan 9-Feb 3), two Middlebury students can participate. During the term, each student will be assigned to work as an intern with a classroom teacher in the elementary, middle school or high school program. Tasks will vary but may include: observing classes, tutoring, directing small-group work, working with special education students, working in the computer lab and working with outreach programs.

Local housing will be facilitated through Middlebury alumni.
