The Chrome Connections internship program began in July, 2019. The interns are the premier students at Wills Point High School. The program teaches students business principles in both the service and retail industries. Students receive training and certifications and other information that prepares them for their future. This program has multiple different parts that each student is able to learn and use. The first part of our program that is the most known is our Campus Store that is available to students and teachers, which is open during the first half of the school day for people to come in and purchase snacks, school supplies, and other personal items such as phone chargers. The second well known part of the class is the Fix and Repair Team. This team is a group of students in the internship that will fix the school issued chromebooks across the school district. They are responsible for making sure everything is working properly and in the best condition before returning to its owner. The Chrome Crew does so much for the community such as taking care of the other faculty in the school by giving them food on occasions, we also participated in Operation Christmas Child which is a program that brings gifts to kids in need, we also give grants to teachers for approved instruction. This internship gives students in Wills Point High School wonderful experience in the business field, such as customer service which not only helps in a work environment but also in everyday life. It allows these students to grow in themselves and become a better student all around. The students in this program have created a great relationship with each other just because they were given the opportunity to work together and support one another.
