MCPS is seeking employers in all career fields who would be willing to help prepare students for life after high school. Hosts could benefit by gaining extra help at a time when it is tough to find workers, and by building a future talent pipeline for the organization.
Since 2017, 2,400 students have participated in the program, gaining skills and connections with industry professionals. This year, the program is looking to serve 800 MCPS students in more than 60 industries.
Those who are interested in becoming a Summer RISE host can learn more about the program from:
- A Host Information Session to answer questions (optional)
- Reading the Summer RISE Host Agreement
- Previewing a copy of the Summer RISE 2023 Host Registration.
Potential hosts can register through April 14 at Summer RISE 2023: Career Experience Host Registration (google.com).
For detailed information about Summer RISE, watch a video of students and hosts in action from Summer RISE 2022 or visit www.MCPS-SummerRISE.org.
