PATH Student Internships

Applications now open!

The City of Port St. Lucie is proud to announce that its high school internship program is now accepting applications!

This opportunity is open to:

Students attending St. Lucie Public Schools or charter schools who are currently in their sophomore or junior year at the time of applying.
Students who are 16 years or older.
While all eligible students are encouraged to apply, preference will be given to those who are not currently planning to attend college immediately after graduation.

Duration: Eight weeks during summer break, aligned with the St. Lucie Public Schools calendar.
Pay: Interns will earn $15/hour and work 40 hours per week.
Experience: Interns will be placed in one of the City’s departments and assigned meaningful projects, either one large project or several smaller ones.
Celebration: At the end of the program, interns will participate in a graduation ceremony where they can invite family and friends. Before the ceremony, interns will showcase their projects and share their experiences with City staff and the public.

Applications will be accepted online each year from January through March.

Required application materials:

Your most recent report card
Two letters of recommendation (from teachers, counselors, community leaders or parents)
Parental/guardian consent form (if younger than 18)
Photo release form (if younger than 18, must be signed by a parent/guardian)

Interviews will be conducted the week following Spring Break, and selected students will be notified in May.

Please note: Students may only participate in the internship program once.
