ABOUT ISM

Independent Study Mentorship Program (ISM)

Independent Study and Mentorship (ISM) is a challenging and engaging elective provided at Frisco ISD high schools for high-achieving juniors and seniors. Students do research and interviews on their chosen topic of study throughout the year in order to find a mentor and obtain real-world experience.  Being in ISM will allow me to explore these topics with the help of a mentor. I am beyond excited to learn about techniques, innovations, topical treatments and possibly how to create my own. My goal this year in ISM is to be able to get a head start in the field of study that I want to be employed in, learn more about the profession, get an insight into professionalism, and make useful connections.I am presented with an array of opportunities to help guide me in my future. It is my responsibility to take advantage of them and grow to my fullest potential. The independent study mentorship program includes everything for students like me to take our first steps into the real world of careers, internships, and more. To wrap up, this opportunity will greatly aid my future aspirations by giving me the chance to experience the job that I have been so excited about. The career that all my hard work will go into. I will finally get insight into what my future could look like. I am excited to have the hands-on experience of being in a clinic and seeing actual patients come that are seeking help. This is a completely different and enticing experience like nothing I have done before. This opportunity is much different than the educational and more textbook-oriented learning I have done in the past. I will work to continue and prosper as a student in the program that will kickstart my dream career.
