SENIOR PROJECT 2021
Senior Project 2021 is underway! We have 42 seniors working on 32 projects, and they have all gotten off to a great start! These awesome kids have chosen a wide range of topics to explore during their final quarter of their school year from shadowing a dentist, to designing an eco friendly fashion line, to researching and writing a family history to working with a local representative at the Massachusetts State House and more. If you'd like to get a better sense of what these students are up to, please check out their blogs. Special thanks to the amazing teachers listed below for supporting these kids by being inside mentors. Their work is incredibly valuable, especially during such a difficult year.
