Senior Project is a four-part endeavor on which our seniors work all year. The four parts are: (1) The project—something that is a stretch or challenge for each individual student and which will take him or her at least 15 hours outside of the school day to complete. ( We have students doing everything from learning to quilt and making quilts of their family history to organizing a countywide coalition of student leaders at seven area high schools to put on a show in the PAC celebrating Filipino culture ); (2) The paper—an MLA style research paper on a topic related to the project; (3) The portfolio—a collection of documentation which shows the process used and time spent completing the project; and (4) The presentation—a 10 minute speech with 5 minutes Q & A presented to a board comprised of teachers, parents, district office officials, community business leaders, etc.
