Summaries

Summary Sentence: post-baccalaureate teaching internship

Full Summary: No summary paragraph submitted.

We invite recent college graduates interested in working in an independent boarding school environment to apply for a Kenan-Lewis Internship at Woodberry Forest School, a boarding school for 400 boys in grades 9 through 12 located on 1200 scenic acres in Madison County, Virginia. The internship program, established by the William R. Kenan Jr. Charitable Trust in honor of alumni Frank Hawkins Kenan ’31 and Lawrence Lewis, Jr. ’37, helps interns develop the skills required of boarding school teachers while introducing them to all aspects of school life. Woodberry employs two interns annually for one-year appointments as full-time faculty members. Each Kenan-Lewis intern receives guidance from an experienced faculty member, observes classes, teaches at least one class independently, and explores professional development opportunities. Interns teach in one of the following academic areas, depending on Woodberry’s needs each year: academic development, the arts, biology, chemistry, Chinese, English, French, history, Latin, mathematics, physics, religion, and Spanish. Interns live in a school apartment on dorm and will be responsible for the boys who live there. They will participate in the extracurricular life of the school each of the three seasons of the school year as an assistant coach of one of the school’s athletic teams, or as an assistant in one of the after-school fine arts programs.  Preference will be given to those candidates who have the experience and enthusiasm necessary to contribute as classroom teachers and as assistants in afternoon sports or fine arts programs. Each internship carries a salary of $26,000 plus living quarters, meals in the school dining room, and health care benefits. We accept applications from college seniors and recent graduates for the upcoming academic year’s Kenan-Lewis Internships until January 5, 2015. Candidates chosen to interview at Woodberry will be notified by March 1, 2015. Applicants should send a cover letter; a résumé indicating their previous education, employment, athletic experience, and interests; their college transcript; and three letters of recommendation to the address below. View and print the brochure
