Senior Project Rules

A Senior Project Student…

  • Is responsible for any and all costs associated with completing his/her Senior Project. 
  • Must complete 70 hour internship over no less than three weeks
  • Must be in good academic standing in compliance with his/her house office, and be “on‐track” to graduate.  Administration may remove a student from Senior Project at any time if any of the above is at‐risk. 
  • May be removed from Senior Project at any time by the FHS administration. 
  • May not complete the Working Phase in a person’s home. 
  • May not complete the Working Phase under direct supervision of a parent or immediate family member (parent or family member may not be the Site Advisor).  
  • May work at the same SP Site as another student, but will have his/her own unique project components, e.g., research topic, Final Exhibition, etc. 
  • May not cancel appointments with teacher mentors or program staff unless there is an extenuating circumstance. 
  • Will close out his/her grade in each course at the end of term 3. 
  • Will take a final exam at the end of term 3 for non‐AP courses. 
  • Will take all Advanced Placement exams, or come back during Senior Finals week to take a teacher‐created final exam that is comparable to the AP exam. 
  • May not begin Senior Project “Working Phase” hours prior to Day 1 of Term 4.  When making plans for Senior Project, keep in mind that snow days/school cancellations will impact the start date of Senior Project.  If going out‐of‐state, plan carefully! 
  • Must be available during all school hours when not on the internship site.   
  • Must attend all Senior Class assemblies during term 4. 
  • May not go on vacation during term 4 outside of April vacation/ scheduled holidays per the Franklin Public Schools’ calendar. 
  • Must turn in all assignments on time.  Failure to do so or ANY violation of program requirements will put in jeopardy the student’s off‐campus privileges. 
  • Must present on the Final Presentation night. This means the student MUST deliver a presentation to a panel. The panel will be made up of school personnel and community members. Each panel member is involved in the grading of the presentation. 
  • Will not be able to complete Senior Sign Out until all Senior Project work is submitted. 
  • Must check Google Classroom frequently and complete tasks online when instructed to do so.  

Remember: Senior Project is an optional program. By signing up for Senior Project, you agree to the above rules.
