Marian Work Study

George Perham and Stephanie Barbagiovanni of Via Visionary Interiors Architecture in Wilton is one of our newest partners this year. This acclaimed firm provides architecture and design services that yield unique solutions for both corporate and private clients. Kolbe Prep student, Kiara, is excited to learn from them as she begins her year-long mentorship this Sophomore year.

This year we have been blessed to place several student-interns with local area non-profit organizations. Wakeman Boys & Girls Club of Bridgeport is mentoring two Kolbe Prep students at their incredible new facility and students can see first-hand the amazing services it provides Connecticut youth. Giving back is the heart of mentorship and our student-interns are able to return the gift provided them through participation in our initiative. We love full-circle moments!

, one of Connecticut’s most prominent law firms, is participating again this year in our year-long internship program. This initiative not only introduces high school students to real-life professional environments but also teaches them what it takes to be successful in their future field of study. We are extremely grateful to Jamie Jackson, Jennifer Pedevillano and the entire New Haven H&S team for welcoming our students with open arms. The hours devoted to mentoring them will certainly produce a harvest with unimaginable yields for generations to come.

We had a ton of fun celebrating the kickoff of our 2024-25 program at the SportsCenter in Shelton with our student-interns. To say they are a competitive group, is an understatement.

Kolbe student Liana is in her second year of medical internship at OBGYN Physicians in Milford, Connecticut. The knowledge she has gained over the past two years will undoubtedly prepare her for success as she begins her premed requisites at university next year.
