Mission of the Senior Project:
The State of Idaho’s graduation requirements include successful completion of a senior project. In the Kimberly School District that specifically means all students who receive a diploma from Kimberly High School will successfully complete a written report, an oral presentation, and some form of community experience.The senior project allows students to demonstrate their skills and learning in order to become successful in post-secondary education, the workplace, and lifelong learning pursuits.
Goals of the Senior Project:
Each student will create a high-quality project that combines focused research and real-world experience, resulting in a written report and an oral presentation that applies rigor and relevancy to a research topic of the student’s choice. Students will demonstrate skills in all areas necessary to be a successful 21st century learner and contributing member of society.
