Looking Back to Look Ahead
Final Senior English Project
Here it is! The time you thought would never get here has arrived: the end of your high school career! In this final project in Senior English, you will have the opportunity to do some things you might otherwise overlook:
Thank teachers who have helped you along the way
Get ready to say thank you for those graduation gifts
Look at who you really have become
Recall the most memorable moment of high school
Pull together a memory to last forever
You have twelve class periods, plus time at
home if needed, to prepare the notebook for this project. The
six components of this notebook are explained in detail on the
back of this sheet, and the schedule for the remaining days is
listed below. You will need to follow these directions VERY
carefully! Do precisely what it tells you to do and your 6th
six weeks grade will be very high! Take this project
seriously – it is your final grade and your final days at
RCHS!!
