Overview
The Seneca Valley Graduation Project is a continuing educational experience throughout the senior year requiring the successful completion of three separate components in a student-chosen area of study. The components include a project, a portfolio and an oral presentation. During a student's senior year, he/she will develop a project that may be community, career or enrichment oriented. The student’s progress will be logged in an individual portfolio prepared by the student that judges will review before hearing the student’s presentation of his/her Graduation Project. The successful completion of EACH of the three components is a graduation requirement.
