This year I joined this program as both an advisor.

The season has started very well &#8211; we received nearly 50 applicants.<\/p>\n<p>The applicants coming from the high schools in Redmond, Bellevue, Mercer Island, and Seattle\u00a0are passionate, driven, and motivated to learn from real world. All of them had to write an essay answering 4 questions about their interest, preparation, strength, and weakness. Besides their demanding\u00a0high school work load these students had reviewed the projects, prepared essays, got parental consent, and obtained at least two letters of recommendations to apply. In many ways this application process prepares them for their next big step &#8211; applying for colleges.\u00a0I was fortunate to read the letters and appreciate their passion.<\/p>\n<p>Our projects\u00a0had variety coming\u00a0from small business to startup tech companies to academic research. There were both individual and team oriented projects. In the coming weeks, we will work with the sponsors to complete a matching process to sign-up the students with respective\u00a0opportunities.<\/p>\n<p>I wish the best for the high school students who had applied. And we are thankful to the project sponsors.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Spark SIP\u00a0connects aspiring high school kids in the\u00a0Greater Seattle area to\u00a0internships with\u00a0small companies, universities and enthusiastic coaches.
