SENIOR PROJECT
Senior Project is a nationally recognized program where students earn high school credit while learning about or working on something that deeply interests them.

There are four components to the Senior
Project:
1) the actual activity you perform,
2) a portfolio illustrating your experiences,
3) a 7 – 10 page paper on a topic related to your project
and,
4) an oral presentation to a small group of teachers and
community members.

The 2007/2008 school year will be the
second pilot year of this exciting program.
Students who sign up for the program will be scheduled for
the same
English and Government/Economics teachers who will help them
create,
implement and report on their project. This course will
be immersed in the social studies/English curriculum in the
spring of senior year.
