Exciting Opportunities for Students!

Would you like to make a difference in the Latino community? An internship with Hispanic CREO provides you an experience in communications outreach, mass media, database technology, and developing a clearer understanding of current K-12 education reform issues. This is your opportunity to apply your knowledge in a dynamic, professional environment, where you can put your ideas to work. We are looking for college students who are bilingual in Spanish and English and who are interested in ensuring that all children receive a quality education.

“I am amazed at all that I learned about education reform and the school choice movement in only eight weeks. The people involved in this movement are among the most passionate and intelligent I have ever encountered, leaving me no choice but to catch up and keep up. And it was most definitely worth it; I am truly lucky to have partaken in their work."
