It contributes to a strong senior year of challenging courses and practical experiences that prepare students for the next step in work and further education. Students will be matched with high school staff members according to career cluster focus of the student (see the last two pages in this handbook for career cluster descriptions). The Senior Culminating Event Committee will assign juniors to staff members by May of the junior year. Gallatin County High School staff will mentor and advise the seniors throughout the Senior Culminating Event. This handbook will assist you in planning and conducting your culminating project. Remember, your mentor is there to help you, ask for assistance as needed. This initiative is a way for you, as a Gallatin County High School senior, to show what you know and are able to do. Make this your capstone activity for the year by doing the very best that you can do; this is your time to shine. It is our sincere desire that all seniors will receive proficient or distinguished scores on your three senior exit components. However, you are required to score an apprentice or above on two of the three components. 2 DESCRIPTION The Senior Culminating Event is a performance-based requirement consisting of three components: professional profile, project report and oral presentation. It is an integral part of a student’s final year of high school. Successful completion of the SCE is mandatory for graduation. This project is to be completed outside of school and be based on the student’s career objective. School personnel will be mentors to the seniors during the SCE. Students must pass all three areas of the SCE to graduate. Students who fail any part of the SCE or who fail to turn in their work for any reason must complete their project during summer school.

Your profile can be used when applying for jobs and/or admittance to college. It can also be a wonderful memento of your high school career. 4 II. Project Report In this component you will summarize your project, analyze the process that you followed and report what you learned from the project. Discussion should include how your performance, effort and decisions will directly affect your future career and educational opportunities. Project selection must be connected to your career objective and be a “learning stretch” or a true challenge. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Minimum of four pages (double spaced, 12 point font) Supported with authentic records and documentation Show evidence of thoughtful reflection Describe each step of the project Describe the difficulties encountered and the adjustments made Discuss how the project could have been improved or made more meaningful How to choose a project: A senior project should allow you to do and learning something that is important to you. The students who benefit and enjoy the activity the most are the students who have a purpose and passion for their project. Seniors may choose a project and submit your Letter of Intent at the end of the junior year or in September of your senior year. You have many alternatives when choosing a project. The project must be connected to your career objective. When selecting a project, you should have a limited knowledge in the area so that a true learning stretch or true challenge is created. You will develop a tangible product as a result of your project. You are responsible for all financial commitments. It is important for your and your parents to discuss options and financial concerns when choosing the project. Choose a project that will take a minimum of fifteen hours to complete. 5 III. Oral Presentation Information about the project will be shared in an oral presentation at the end of the school year. The content of the presentation should reveal what you have learned from your project and how it affects your career goals. Presentation Guidelines: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Panel will consist of 3-5 members consisting of faculty, business, community It is imperative that all work be saved on a flash drive. You will choose a fifteen minute time slot Presentations will be from 8-10 minutes Five minutes will be allowed for questions from panel The presentation must be about your tangible project: o Why you chose the project o How does it relate to your career objective? o Were there stumbling blocks o What was the learning stretch 7. Use of technology should be evident 8. Video clips of you or your project are encouraged ( max. of one minute video) 9. Photographs, overheads, handouts can be used 10.

Dress as if you are interviewing for a job (Males: dress slacks, shirt/w collar, dress shoes; Females: Slacks or skirt and blouse) 6 Safety Although students, when designing and working on their Senior Culminating Events, are encouraged to challenge themselves in original and creative ways, certain hazardous activities are prohibited. Any activity that could harm the student or other individuals is forbidden. Gallatin County High School requires students to complete their project in keeping with commonly recognized safety standards and procedures, and may deny approval for any proposal that includes an activity judged to be unsafe or hazardous. Cost Despite its status as a graduation requirement, the exit project need not cost any more than a typical school project would cost. The school expects students to work within their means. Individual teachers and Gallatin County High School are not responsible for providing supplies, materials or any other expense encountered during the planning or completion of the Senior Culminating Event. Students are encouraged to develop a reasonably accurate estimate of costs, and parents are asked to plan accordingly in order to help their child graduate. Transfer Students Students who transfer into the Gallatin County Public School District during the fall semester and are given senior standing will be required to complete all three components of the culminating event. Students who transfer into the District after the tenth day of the second semester and are given senior standing will be exempt from completing the senior project and oral presentation. Students will, however, be responsible for completing the professional profile. Students with disabilities Students receiving Special Education services may require accommodations and/or modifications to complete their work. Student IEPs will detail how each student will meet the SCE requirements. The plan may include input from the student, parent/guardian, Special Education teacher, counselor, and general education teacher. Intervention and Remediation If you do not score apprentice or above on two of the three components, you will be able to revise and resubmit your work. Your mentor will provide additional help as needed. Completing all components of the SCE is necessary for graduation. Meeting a deadline requires you to do more that simply turn work in on time; it also requires you to produce quality work that meets school standards. Failure to meet these deadlines and standards may jeopardize your participation in commencement. 7 Senior Culminating Event Oral Presentation Rubric Distinguished (all proficient +) Name___________________________ Student engages reader with highly original presentation Student demonstrates an exceptional graphic/technical component Student speech is rich and/or complex, highly organized and insightful Student exhibits well-practiced speech techniques engaging ALL members of the panel Student internalizes speech requiring no note cards or speech materials as aids Student is enthusiastic about his topic, process, and discovery Student provides in depth answers to questions Student reveals a true stretch in his discovery and reflection Student exceeds expectations by using sophisticated language, word choices and expressions are vivid, descriptive and grammatically correct Student demonstrates exceptional use of gestures, posture, eye contact Proficient Student uses correct form for presentation Student includes appropriate graphics/videos/Power Point/or technology to present and explain information and process Student uses standard speech techniques to address audience o Eye contact, gestures and body language to engage panel o Projected, clear voice;
