Internship Opportunities
District 60 has served as an intern training site for more than 30 years. During this period we provided training for more than 30 professional psychologists. It is our experience that due to the size of our district and the diversity of our special populations in terms of handicapping conditions, the comprehensive intern experience provided by District 60 prepares psychologists to work in any public school setting and across all grade levels. Within the district we have programs and services for every IDEA exceptionality and within our school age population one may find virtually every condition described in the textbooks. These conditions and more make Waukegan fertile ground for professional growth experiences.
Typically, we attract interns from the nearby universities, e.g. National-Louis University, Loyola, and Governors State, However, we have worked with interns from more distant universities such as, Illinois State University, Southern Illinois University, Western Illinois University, University of Minnesota, Tufts University, and North Carolina.
