nterested i ? INTERNSHIP SPOTLIGHT CHloe becker, Martarano Engineering a typical DAY AT MY INTERNSHIP LESSONS I’VE LEARNED contact wagste@share.wilsonsd.org I start by greeting my co-workers and getting settled at my desk. Once I've logged my hours and checked my emails, I either ask for new tasks or pick up where I left off on unfinished assignments. Most of my work involves using AutoCAD to set up project backgrounds and organizing files. This includes preparing physical project files by labeling them with project numbers and stapling in the required paperwork. Throughout the day, I make sure to ask questions so I’m always learning new skills. I’ve learned that clear communication is essential, especially regarding my schedule and being respectful of the their time. My internship has taught me the value of attention to detail; I’ve realized that even small tasks, like making sure papers are perfectly lined up and measurements are exact, are vital for the office to run smoothly. I’ve also developed patience with tedious work because I understand that they trust me to get the work done correctly. photo of girl standing next to sign

nterested i ? INTERNSHIP SPOTLIGHT Isabella DiGiacomo, Spring Ridge Elementary a typical DAY AT MY INTERNSHIP LESSONS I’VE LEARNED contact wagste@share.wilsonsd.org A day at my internship involves supporting students in various classrooms throughout the day. I help students stay on task, provide mental breaks when needed, and assist with transitions by walking with them in the hallways. I also use calming activities, such as playing with play dough, to help students regulate their emotions. Additionally, I am available to students who need someone to talk to, whether they are dealing with something important or simply need support. My internship has taught me many valuable lessons that are helping prepare me for my future. I have learned the importance of patience, empathy, and flexibility when working with students who have different needs and learning styles. I have also gained experience in building positive relationships with students by providing emotional support and being someone they can trust. Along with this, I have learned how important it is to help students stay focused while also recognizing when they need mental or emotional breaks. This experience has strengthened my communication skills and has helped me better understand the impact that encouragement and support can have on a student’s success. photo of girl standing next to sign outside

nterested i ? INTERNSHIP SPOTLIGHT Jakub Mochon, Penn State Health St. Joseph a typical DAY AT MY INTERNSHIP LESSONS I’VE LEARNED contact wagste@share.wilsonsd.org I work in the Short Procedure Unit. My day consists of helping patients to their rooms and cleaning rooms. I work with nurses and aid them with their daily tasks. I have also had the opportunity to observe many surgeries. I have seen hip and knee replacements, open heart surgeries, hernia repairs, and many more. I have learned the importance of compassion and human connection in healthcare. As a future Biomedical Engineering Major, I have had my eyes opened to so many technologies such as the Da Vinci and the Heart-Lung Bypass Machine. I now know what healthcare looks like behind the scenes and it excites me for my future career as a surgeon. photo of guy putting gown on hospital bed

nterested i ? INTERNSHIP SPOTLIGHT Elijah Dean, wilson Athletic Training a typical DAY AT MY INTERNSHIP LESSONS I’VE LEARNED contact wagste@share.wilsonsd.org When we get there, we start by sanitizing the tables, setting out rehab equipment, and restocking tape drawers while we wait for people to come in. Once people start coming in, everyone is doing something different like getting evaluated, stretched, or taped. We also help them with rehab programs for their injuries. There are various stretches and TheraBand exercises we assist with, and we also prepare ice bags and ice buckets for foot injuries. Once things settle down, we sometimes practice taping. On game days, we fill up two jugs and ice coolers, roll them out before the games, and ensure that ice bags and the AED are ready on the carts. I am learning about different muscles, different bones, and how to evaluate someone, which will help me as I follow my career path to become a Physical Therapist. I have also learned how to do different tape jobs. This has helped me improve my communication skills because when people need help or aren't sure what to do, I can speak up whether I know them or not. It helps me get to know people better, build new relationships, and watch them heal as time goes on. a guy standing with two adults infront of a wilson athletic training room sign

We are thrilled to share how our district’s vision and strategic goals are coming to life. Our mission has always been to empower students to create their own futures, and this year, we’re taking a major step forward by prioritizing Student-Centered Learning. We are creating environments where instruction is responsive to individual needs, data-driven, and designed to accelerate academic growth for every child.

To make this vision a reality, our Teaching and Learning Department is hitting the ground running! Throughout the month of February, the team will be working directly with staff at all 5 of our elementary buildings. Check out our Green Valley teachers engaging in a 3rd grade math lesson led by our K-5 Supervisor, Mrs. Angela Mitstifer. The 3rd grade math lesson focused on fractions and allowed teachers to observe a lesson with teachers acting as the students, while the rest of the teachers watched in a "fishbowl" observing a lesson. They then collaborated to gain insights into what student- centered lessons can look like in their classrooms.

By investing in our educators, we are ensuring our schools remain a place where students love to learn and staff love to work. #WilsonSD

nterested i ? INTERNSHIP SPOTLIGHT Ava englerberg southern middle school english DAY AT MY INTERNSHIP LESSONS I’VE LEARNED contact wagste@share.wilsonsd.org A typical day at my internship is spent in an 8th grade English classroom. I arrive before class to review the agenda with Mrs. Miller, greet students, and help organize materials. During class, I support students with assignments, answer questions, and help keep them on task. I also assist with collecting and grading simple work while observing classroom management and teaching strategies to learn more about the role of a teacher. My internship prepares me for my future as a teacher by giving me firsthand classroom experience. Being in two classrooms over two years has helped me build relationships with staff and grow in confidence. I’m learning to communicate clearly, manage student behavior, support different learning styles, and overcome my fear of public speaking. Observing lesson planning and assisting students one-on-one has strengthened my patience, confidence, and understanding of effective teaching. Overall, Wilson’s internship program has given me a strong foundation for becoming a successful teacher.

nterested i ? INTERNSHIP SPOTLIGHT Victoria Sheehan, Cornwall terrace a typical DAY AT MY INTERNSHIP LESSONS I’VE LEARNED contact wagste@share.wilsonsd.org I go into a 5th grade class, 2nd grade class, and a 4th grade class. I'm there to work individually with students, and help them with school work or talk to them if they're struggling with something at home or at school. Depending on the classroom, I either help with Reading or Writing. I help 2nd graders with how to pronounce words, reading fluently, and make sure they comprehend what they're reading. In 4th and 5th grade I help them with writing format, ideas, and grammar. There are a couple students I take out into the hallway for a Walk-And-Talk to give them a brain break, and build individual connections. My internship has helped me develop patience, communication, and problem-solving skills. I’ve learned that working with kids requires understanding, flexibility, and the ability to adapt to different situations. I’m improving how I communicate with students, teachers, and my coordinator, and I’ve gained experience finding solutions when students struggle to stay on task. These skills are essential for my future career working with children.

nterested i ? INTERNSHIP SPOTLIGHT Maddie Taylor, Tower Health - Reading Hospital a typical DAY AT MY INTERNSHIP LESSONS I’VE LEARNED contact wagste@share.wilsonsd.org My days at my internship can vary. Most days, I spend my time on N2S, which is a Heart Failure nursing unit. I stock gloves and protective gear, shadow nurses and doctors, and help patients with simple tasks. Occasionally, I round with my supervisor and the clinical nurse specialist, checking long-term patients' wounds and asking about their stay. Other days, I go to E1, a surgical nursing unit that my supervisor is covering. Since it is typically short-staffed, I help clean the unit, pick up phone calls, and answer patient call bells. Being alone in certain departments has taught me a lot of problem solving skills. I need to figure out how to be helpful when my supervisor leaves and the nurses are working. I have also learned a lot of people skills: communicating with nurses, doctors, patients, and determining what to say and how to say it to avoid conflict. Learning these skills will be very helpful in preparing me for a future career in healthcare.

nterested i ? INTERNSHIP SPOTLIGHT Zachary Bausher-Grybosky, C2C Design Group a typical DAY AT MY INTERNSHIP LESSONS I’VE LEARNED contact wagste@share.wilsonsd.org A day at C2C Design Group typically consists of completing forms and documents for projects. One of the types of forms I fill out are Act 14 forms, which notify the county and municipality of what is going to be built. Another task I do is finding where the runoff from the construction site goes. I also find the geology and types of soil at the construction site. One thing I have learned from my internship is to not hesitate to ask for help. I have found that when I ask for help, I better understand the process and clear up any confusion. Now when I am stuck on something, I ask for help a lot sooner.

100 days of learning, growing, and achieving together. Our students and staff marked the milestone by dressing as 100-year-olds, bringing plenty of creativity and laughter to the celebration. Happy 100 Days of School! #WilsonSD
