Internships are not just for students in college. High-school students also need on-the-job experiences. In a new effort to give more young people the chance to learn in the workplace, Ohio is offering to pay half of a high-school intern's salary, up to $5,000. Before you say the deal sounds too good to be true, think about the state's self-interest and how it stands to benefit. The appeal of the Ohio Career Exploration Internship Program is its ease and simplicity.
