Potential sites for my internship/fieldwork

I would like to do my internship/fieldwork at Paramus High School. The biggest reason for this is that I am currently a teacher there. I would be able to do my hours necessary on all of my lunch and prep periods, and not have to take off a year of work. It also makes sense that I want to do it at the high school level, because I got into counseling because I want to help teenagers. Another possible site would be River Dell High School, because it is close to Paramus, but also because I think it would be interesting to work at a school that has students from multiple towns.

My goals are simple for internship and fieldwork, and they are to open myself up to my supervisor and learn everything I can. I want to be able to take their criticism and make improvements, and changes necessary to be a great counselor. I want to learn different techniques to employ in certain situations. I am excited, and just wish this experience was not so far away.
