Senior Year Notes
Senior Project News
Grades for last week's Senior Project Panel #1 (P or NP) are now available in PowerSchool. Follow-up comments from mentors are also available on PowerSchool. If your child received an NP, you should have received a follow-up email from your child's mentor about the next steps. Seniors should now be meeting with their mentors weekly and following the plans and timelines that they created for themselves and that their panel approved. It is important that they are completing the tasks they identified by the due dates that they assigned themselves.
