Dear Teachers,
We appreciate your endorsement of students as candidates for our summer internship program. To confirm and validate your recommendation, please provide us with an email where we can reach you- preferably your school email - on the third line.
Your observations and character determinations of the student are the clearest measure of appropriateness of the student applicant to our program. Your feedback is immensely valuable to us. There is an open text box at the end of the questions. If additional information or explanations develop as you select various answers, it is a good place to make those notes. It is also an opportunity for you to let us know what qualities the student demonstrates that you believe make this applicant a good candidate for a summer research internship.
We are immensely grateful for your time. Thank you! The Indianapolis Project SEED Committee
