The Senior Project is a program that integrates and applies students' skills in a performance-based, culminating project designed for graduating seniors. The program offers the seniors an opportunity to shine, be challenged, academically engaged and self directed. It allows the staff and the community to assess what attitudes, skills and knowledge the seniors apply in a learning area. The Senior Project offers students a chance to successfully complete a culminating, rigorous and relevant capstone experience. (Senior Project Center)
