Q:What is a senior project?
A:The senior project is a 20 hour community service based project that is required of all students in order to receive a Brodhead High School diploma. Towards the end of the junior year, all students receive a packet of information that breaks down the requirements of the project. Specifics include journal entries, visual aids such as a power point, pictures or a video, a resume, and a final presentation. While the project may seem to be a big deal, most students find that, in the end, it is a rewarding experience and helps them learn to set goals, plan, and accomplish something that helps the community at large.
