THE FACING HISTORY INTERNSHIP PROGRAM
OVERVIEW:
  Facing History is a unique program for students who want to make a difference in our school, local, and global communities. This course is designed to increase tolerance and multicultural understanding through literature, history, psychology, service learning, and research. It is co-taught by a team of teachers from the English, Social Studies, Library and Internship departments. This program satisfies the English and Social Studies requirements for senior year as well as an elective credit. Second semester includes an off-site service-based internship that provides an opportunity for civic engagement to promote upstander behavior.
In previous years Facing History students have interned at Head Start, The Henry Viscardi School, The Genesis School, Nassau County's Holocaust Memorial and Tolerance Center, Girl Scouts of America, Atria Senior Living, Island Harvest, The Mill Neck School, and more. During the pandemic students have been completing their internships with various non-profit organizations virtually.  

​If you have any questions about how this internship program works please contact Nicole Kinsey (516-441-4862, nkinsey@greatneck.k12.ny.us).
