Below is the description of an internship opportunity that I wanted to pass on. Tabita Sherfinski, the contact person, is a friend of a friend, and she asked my husband and me to help her out by getting the word out—this is about a PAID internship at Chicago Public Schools!

If you do end up contacting her, please e-mail me just so we know we were able to connect her with an interested party (heidi.k.turkalj@moody.edu). Thanks!
