Senior Portfolio and Presentation
Students will maintain a vocational portfolio in grades 9-11. Advisers guide students in reflection of their experiences. Students use documents from their portfolio to give a presentation in their senior year of high school. The goal of a senior presentation is for students to reflect on their life so far, to acknowledge appreciation for those who have nurtured them, and to anticipate their future.
The Portfolio and Presentation will help students to:
- Discover their interests, skills, passion, and God’s calling in their lives, realizing that this discovery is a process and not a conclusion
- Reflect upon stewardship of God-given gifts and resources
- Discern their personal characteristics and Christian ethics needed for a vocation
- Become aware of how their potential career can be Christ-centered and missional
- Review their personal high school plan in light of their current vocational goals
- Select post-secondary opportunities that match their personal vocational interests and goals
Mini-courses and Class Experiences
Lancaster Mennonite Nhà trường nhận ra rằng nhiều kỹ năng và sở thích suốt đời quan trọng được phát triển bên ngoài môi trường lớp học. Các khóa học nhỏ cho lớp 11 và 12 và trải nghiệm lớp học cho lớp 9 và 10 tạo cơ hội cho học sinh học hỏi với bạn bè và giáo viên của mình và được hưởng lợi từ chuyên môn và sự sáng tạo của giáo viên.
Mini-courses are a minimum of three days and may include overnight trips or day trips for those three days. Students may count school-led summer trips as their mini-course prior to their junior or senior years. Mini-courses focus on an academic area and/or service and occur every two years (spring of even years). Students receive a pass/fail grade for 0.25 credit.
The theme for the Freshman Experience is Building Community and the theme for the Sophomore Experience is Creation Care. Some class experiences for grades 9 and 10 occur yearly, while some occur every two years when mini-courses occur.
