Our Charter requires all graduating seniors to complete the Senior Project, which allows the senior the
opportunity to participate in a personalized learning experience. Each senior chooses a topic he/she is
passionate about and conducts an independent study. Topics include careers, hobbies, and social
concerns. Each student, working with a mentor, will research an essential question and will develop
an annotated bibliography, due in December. Then the student will create a product with the information
he has gathered.  Finally, the students gather together all documentation for his project into a portfolio that
will be graded by a panel of teachers.  Each presenter will have three judges who, using rubrics, will evaluate
the student's product and presentation. The evaluation, the culmination of a year's work, will be the
student’s final exam grade in the core classes (English, Math, Science Social Studies). Also students will
receive a unit of credit and a grade for Senior Project class. In addition, the graduation exhibition will be
evidence of seniors' ability to solve problems, organize time and resources, communicate effectively and
reflect on themselves as learners.
