"The benefit is you're working," says intern Darlington Princewell. "You're learning a trade with professionals who are already in this field. And even if this is not something you want to do with the rest of your life, it's still a trade you can carry with you." The students come after school, are assigned to a garage, and work on city vehicles, such as marked police cars. "We need technicians to keep the city running," says former internship director Lisa Spruill. "The city is winning and also that student is winning as well." Coverage of after-school learning opportunities is supported in part by a grant from the Charles Stewart Mott Foundation, at www.mott.org.
