- Senior Project discussed:
Mr. Mullen stated that many students are doing
well. There are some students that still have
some issues. Those students with issues have
been notified, as have their parents. Parents
raised some concerns that students are receiving
mixed messages. Mr. Mullen stated that the “yes”
test has been replaced with an evaluation tool
as of today. Students will be informed of this
new evaluation method. As each deadline has
passed, students are told if their project is
unacceptable or they have not met the
standards. Mr. Mullen told parents there will
be no surprises since this is not the purpose of
Senior Project. Mr. Mullen stated that the logs
and mentor reports are due on 3/14. The
research paper packet is due on 3/28. If a
student does cannot meet these deadlines an
appeal must be made in writing. He stated that
the projects will be presented on 5/20.
Students should not worry about the presentation
panel members are not there to be difficult. Mr.
Mullen will be discussing with juniors
expectations at the next assembly. Mr. Mullen
stated that as long as students make an attempt
and put an effort into the project they will be
successful with senior project. For those
students who have not done anything they can
begin their project the day after graduation.
