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
  • 辨别他们的个人特征和圣召所需的基督教伦理
  • 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 School realizes that many significant lifelong skills and interests are developed outside the classroom setting. Mini-courses for grades 11 and 12 and class experiences for grades 9 and 10 provide opportunities for students to learn with their peers and teachers and benefit from teachers’ expertise and creativity.

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.
