PROFESSIONAL CAREER INTERNSHIP
Linton-Stockton High School offers an Internship program that is designed for our senior students who want to
explore specific, targeted career objectives through workplace experience. Students attend class on Monday
and gain experience at their worksites Tuesday through Friday two hours per day. The Miner Message features
one or more student interns as “Employee of the Month” during the school year. We are featuring our last
student during the month of May. Her biography follows:
Hannah Frady
My name is Hannah Frady and I am a senior at Linton-Stockton High School. I managed the cross country team
but I also play basketball and softball. I play travel softball for the Indiana Futures out of Bloomington, Indiana as well. I
will be continuing my education at Bethel University while also playing college softball. At Bethel, I will be majoring in
pre-physical therapy. Bethel University is located in northern Indiana in Mishawaka, Indiana near Notre Dame.
I am interning this semester at Glenburn in the physical therapy department and in the 4th grade at Linton
Elementary. Currently at Glenburn, I am observing the PTA´s in the department and watch what they do with their
patients. In the elementary, I just help with either math lessons or whether it be helping a student with their homework. I
am really glad to experience these two great sites as they are both helping me with my future career.
The Internship experience has been a great learning tool for Linton-Stockton students. Hannah has been a great
student throughout high school and I am confident she will continue to excel at the college level. We wish her
“Good Luck” as she embarks on her chosen career. Follow your dreams Hannah!!!!!
CONGRATULATIONS TO ON YOUR RETIREMENT!!
All of us at L-SHS would like to say “Congratulations and Best Wishes” to Mrs. Linda Williams and Mrs.
Deborah Harding, who will be retiring at the end of the month. We will miss you, but the time is right for
you. We sincerely hope that retirement is wonderful! We wish you lots of joyous time with your family and
friends.
Mrs. Deborah Harding Mrs. Linda Williams
MINER POWER word for May is Hopeful
to cherish a desire with anticipation; to want something to happen or to be true.
