Next week, when several Centennial High School students go on the Fulton County School System's Spring Break, things could look a little different at Siemens Industry Inc. in Alpharetta.

Short for “Learning Internship For Employment,” the program is a unique partnership between Fulton County Schools and Siemens to provide special …
