DARTS Counselor-In-Training Program

Program
Description:
Counselors-in-Training (CIT) are a vital part of the DARTS
program. During their two weeks on the DARTS campus in Lenox,
MA, CIT assist Senior Staff, participate in intensive arts and
leadership workshops, coordinate special student activities and
travel on half-day excursions to several of the Berkshires' finest
cultural venues. The CIT experience is centered around
leadership training and mentoring opportunities, while supporting
current DARTS participants during their week at DARTS.
Eligibility
Requirements:
The CIT program seeks candidates from within our DARTS alumni who
are current high school sophomores, juniors, and seniors, and who
have continued their involvement in the arts (chorus,
band/orchestra, dance, theatre, visual arts). Those alumni
who have served as a CIT in the past and those who are not
authorized to work in the United States are not eligible to apply,
and candidates must be sixteen years old by the start of their
DARTS session in order to be eligible to be hired as a
CIT.
Application Instructions
and Hiring Process:
Letters of invitation to apply are mailed out to all eligible CIT
each February. If a student's mailing address has changed
since their DARTS attendance, please email the updated address to
the DARTS Office at darts@bso.org
