Issaquah Schools Foundation & Business Leaders Develop
Partnership to Support Student Success & Workforce Development Through Internships.


The Issaquah Schools Foundation along with the Issaquah and Sammamish Chambers of Commerce are teaming-up to increase the number of local internship opportunities available to Issaquah students. The partnership will kick-off by a short survey, aimed at local businesses, to help identify areas of opportunity for new and existing internships for local students. The goal of the partnership is to develop and grow a database of businesses interested in supporting an internship program, followed by providing enhanced support and resources to these businesses to help increase the internship opportunities available in Issaquah. In addition, we are working to develop a Speaker's Bureau to enable educators to tap into the expertise of our business community.
